United For Justice (August 2002)
A must read.
Product Description
A stunning family legal drama in which lives collide when a mother fights the justice system in order to save her daughter from its clutches.
From the Publisher
This thought-provoking suspense novel is an excellent choice for reading groups. The drama grips the reader and transports her to a new, strange and frightening wolrd that is more chilling as it feels real because it is to be found in the reader's own backyard.
From the Author
I am intrigued by the forces that shape our lives--political upheavals, big governments, or the legal system--with the infinite possibilities with which the human spirit can be either broken or rise above them.
I bring to my book-length or short fiction the profound compassion I feel for children and parents when betrayed by those who are supposed to help them.
