Husband. Father. Esteemed Community Man. Armed Bank Robber. The unflinching story of one man's double life--and his ultimate transformation. To his friends and family, Ken Cooper was the epitome of the perfect citizen: he was devoted to his wife and kids, loved by all, and had a high-profile job for a well-known Christian college.

This man was known to the newspapers and public as the armed and mysterious "gentleman bank robber." With raw authenticity, Ken bares all--from his tragic past to his time in one of Florida's most notorious prisons--in this unforgettable story of one man's miraculous redemption.
