Naked on the Inside introduces us to a man who endeavors to overcome his past addictions and lead a productive life as a detective. Along his journey, the people in his life become part of it in such a way their lives are changed as well–including the lives of a homeless man, a lonely young woman, and an immigrant from Colombia. When the detective and his dog are in the lead, all details are uncovered and any man or woman who commits a crime in the neighborhood will be stopped.

This novel expresses the warmth of the human condition. All people, whether local or from afar, should be treated with respect and given the opportunity to better themselves and others. Where there is love, there is hope.
