The incredible story of struggle, redemption, and bounty
hunting--which has catapulted Duane "Dog" Chapman into the
hearts of millions, sparked a #1 rated television show, and
inspired a #1 New York Times bestselling book--continues in
Where Mercy Is Shown, Mercy Is Given.
"Who is going to give them the ride, Duane? Who will give
them the cigarette and who will give them `the talk'?" When the preacher posed those questions to me, I realized
he was right. If not me, then who? Whether I had planned it
or not, I was leading a backseat ministry, one ride at a
time.
--from Where Mercy Is Shown, Mercy Is Given Considered by many to be the world's greatest bounty
hunter, Duane "Dog" Chapman has become famous for capturing
fugitives on Dog the Bounty Hunter, his #1 rated show on
A&E. But his job doesn't end when he cuffs his man--or woman.
Having personally struggled against abuse, addition, and a
life of crime, Dog knows a thing or two about the path that
these fugitives cuffed in the back of his car are on--and
he has a good idea of the bad news they'll find at the end
of it. As someone who has succeeded in beating the odds and
finding a way to live on the right side of the law, Dog
also knows what the person in the backseat needs to hear in
order to straighten out his or her life. "This is your wake up call. You either answer it now, or
pay for it later and for the rest of your life. You're
being given another shot at things, but only if you take
the risk to make the right decision. The choice is yours.
What's it going to be, brotha?" While he is himself a mentor to many, Dog draws strength
from the great teachers in his own life to face the
surprising and difficult challenges that have come his way.
Through hard work, unflinching faith, and the
acknowledgment of his own flaws--along with the
overwhelming desire to fix those flaws--Dog has been
through the fire again and again, and come out the stronger
for it. Revealing, behind-the-scenes looks at Dog's most
significant challenges, along with seat-of-your-pants
accounts of his most breakneck bounty hunting stories,
makes Where Mercy Is Shown, Mercy Is Given a must-read for
any fan.
