Lost in the Forest - Paperback

by Lee Cruz (Author)

He was only four years old when the forest swallowed him hole.

Born into a home of secrets, silence, and unspeakable abuse, a boy is forced to build emotional armor just to survive. For the next 40 years, he drifts deeper into the darkness- through addiction, incarceration, overdoses, and complete emotional isolation. But no matter how far he runs, the echoes of his trauma follow.

Told with brutal honesty and soul-deep reflection, "Lost in the Forest" is the story of a man who finally turns back, step-by-step layer by painful, layer to find the boy he left behind. It's a journey through trauma, survival, faith, and ultimately redemption. Along the way he doesn't just reclaim his voice... he becomes a voice for others. This is not just a memoir. It's a mirror. A map. A light for anyone still lost in their own forest.
