When Johnny Cruel is born with strange appendages on his back in the 1930s South, the locals think hes a devil. Determined to protect him, his mother fakes his death, and they flee.

From a turpentine camp of former slaves to a freak show run by a dwarf who calls herself Tiny Tot and on to the Florida capitol building, Johnny finds himself working alongside other outcasts, struggling to answer the question of his existence. Is he a horror, a wonder, or an angel? Should he hide himself to live his life?
