| Summary |
While hiking on a solo vacation in a remote, uninhabitable region of Arizona, Zachary Anderegg happened upon Riley, an emaciated puppy clinging to life, at the bottom of a 350-foot canyon. In a daring act of humanity that trumped the deliberate savagery behind Riley?s presence in such a place, Zak single-handedly orchestrated a delicate rescue. What didn?t come out in the initial burst of publicity this story received is that Zak and Riley?s destinies were intertwined long before they improbably found each other. For much of Zak?s childhood, he was at the bottom of a veritable canyon himself?a canyon whose imprisoning depth and darkness was created by bullies who just wouldn?t quit and parents who weren?t capable of love. From the age of five, Zak was everyone?s favorite target. |
