Emmitt Wasson’s life wasn’t perfect. But, with a decent job and a loving family, his life was pretty good. That is, until a horrific accident left him and his family spiraling out of control.
While Emmitt struggles to put his family back together, his daughter begins to make a series of choices that put her on a dangerous path Emmitt knows all too well. With his daughter’s future hanging in the balance, he faces a battle requiring a strength and a faith he has yet to understand.
Through unlikely friendships, he will discover the drive and determination he needs to face an immense struggle he isn’t sure he can win. But fight he must, especially if he is to rescue his daughter and have a shot at mercy.

But it’s also an uplifting tale about the power of unconditional love and hope.
I highly recommend this thrilling , tension -filled story to all who like to read.”Once an addict ; always
an addict," doesn’t AlWAYS have to hold true...perhaps.

Baldwin's focus on family and friends rings true in so many ways - the most important being that overcoming the grip of addiction is something that is virtually impossible to do alone. Family and friends are often the ones to notice the signs of addiction and push for change and recovery. I remember reading "Go Ask Alice" (written by Beatrice Sparks) when I was younger - and Timothy Baldwin's story reminds me of that memoir in a lot of ways.
The running theme of forgiveness is paramount in this story, and for good reason - An addict will always be an addict. They may no longer be using, but that demon will always haunt them and only through the forgiveness of their friends, family, and loved ones will they ever feel strong enough to say "no more" to their addiction.
In a country currently facing growing problems with heroin and opioid addiction - it's important that we all look for the signs in those around us and offer a hand when the burden is too great for them to carry on their own.

Bloodshot follows Emmett, a man who battles his demons. Hearing his situation unfold makes you angry, yet sympathetic to his position. He recovers from his drug addiction, which is a significant feat for anyone who has ever battled with the same situation.
Baldwin not only manages to take the story into an emotional rollercoaster, but he also makes you give a damn about everyone you read about. Emmet, a religious man but not quite as much as he should be, wrestles with life post-rehabilitation from his drugs. As it says in the book description, his daughter decides to go the route of drugs as well. Baldwin manages to capture the feelings of Emmett as he battles with memories of his reasons for taking this path.
Full of a vast cast of characters, his narrator, John Rodriguez, knocks it out of the park! Well-spoken, crisp, and clear, Rodriguez can capture the intensity of every moment as it unfolds. He seamlessly transitions between each character with ease.
Again, I like "boom boom shoot em up" stories for their intensity. Bloodshot is not one of those, yet, the drama and situation rival any "war book" I could read. I highly recommend this story to anyone!
What a ride!
