Memoir · Coming 2026

Come Back from One Life

In Breaking Walls, Daniel Rampke opens the door to the most difficult chapters of his life — addiction, trauma, loss, and the long road back to hope.

With remarkable honesty, he explores the moments that nearly destroyed him, the faith that sustained him, and the quiet victories that rebuilt his life one day at a time.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”
Psalm 147:3

About the Author

A Life Rebuilt in the Cold and the Light

Daniel L. Rampke writes from Alaska about the things most people only whisper: relapse, grief, faith that flickers, and the stubborn work of staying. He speaks to recovery communities, churches, campuses, and families who are still waiting on someone to come home.

What People Are Saying

Raw, unflinching, and finally — luminous. Rampke writes about the bottom without ever losing sight of the light above it.
Advance Reader
I gave this to my son in his second month of recovery. He read it in one night and called me crying. That’s the book.
Early Review
A memoir of Alaska, addiction, and grace that reads like a hand reaching back down the mountain for you.
