They are thieves of innocence, murderers of dreams, and administrants of nightmares. Rapists and pedophiles have no soul. We've all had our family members watch our children from time to time--after all, they're family. Once you've read A Rose Trampled: The Samantha Douglas Story, you will rethink about any family member keeping watch over your young children without you being present. I am a retired police officer after 23 years of service and have talked to countless women in my lifetime. Samantha Douglas' true-life story is unlike any story I've ever heard. Samantha had been sexually abused since the age of four. Doctors say maybe as early as two or three. She was thrown out of the house at the age of fifteen because of rebellion against her mother for not confronting her abuser, a mature male relative. She was homeless, severely depressed, and only had the clothes on her back. Later, as an adult, Samantha finally found and married a man, and after several attempts at pregnancy, she had to bury five children. She divorced her husband--infidelity being the reason--and remarried, only to find out he was a murderer. Finally, she found true love and gave birth to her one and only child, Joshua. Joshua was a sick little boy and had major health problems. Then, without warning, her husband suddenly died. Life's thorns could have destroyed her, but instead, they made her stronger. So, if you think you've been to hell and back, just read A Rose Trampled: The Samantha Douglas Story. I promise you'll change your mind.
Autorenporträt
Dianna Thomas, Ph.D., is a retired police officer after twenty-three years of service. She has already written a book about the true crimes of fatal domestic violence and child abuse cases. She has a master's degree in psychology and another in biblical counseling. She also has a doctorate in religious education as well. When she met Samantha, she knew she had to get her story out to as many women and parents as she could who have or may experience piercingly thorns. It has always been her goal to educate individuals and parents of the dangers that lurk in their community. She feels that knowledge is power, and the more you are aware of such predators, the more you will neither be a statistic nor have a broken life, which leads to more statistics. Don't make the mistake of thinking you can spot out a sexual predator; you can't from a distance. They could be your close relative who's an undocumented sexual predator. Once you've read this book, she promises that your life as a parent will change. If you are a sexual assault victim, your life will change for the better from this day forward.
