Stephen Lungu grew up in Zimbabwe's slums, abandoned as a child, sleeping in public toilets, living on scraps. By his teens, he was leading one of the country's most violent gangs, planning to firebomb a Christian rally just to watch it burn. What happened that night — and in the months that followed — rewrote his entire life. This is the autobiography of a man who went from orchestrating terror to preaching reconciliation across Africa and beyond. Lungu's voice is direct, unflinching about his past, and quietly astonishing in its transformation. It's not a tidy redemption story; it's messy, real, and earned. For readers drawn to memoirs where the stakes are life and death, where change feels impossible until it isn't.
