EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK
"Can I tell you a secret?
But you mustn’t tell a soul. You can NEVER tell a soul. The islanders would never forgive me and might indict me for her murder. No, I meant disappearance. I never get it right and I’m afraid I’m unraveling slowly, which is why I must tell my story. My father won’t believe me. My boyfriend thinks I’m mad and my neighbors all want it forgotten.
But how do you forget a sister?
I still see her at times, you know. Fists raised to my face and her feet drawn back to kick me. Brown eyes flashing in anger, nostrils drawing in breath. How could I forget? But you mustn’t think me so innocent or ill deserving of the crime. Perhaps I should explain it all and start from the beginning.
I didn’t play with dolls when I was little. I was too busy in the garden shed fantasizing about getting away with murder. No, I don’t mean innocent misdemeanors like moving a few coins out of Mom’s purse or hiding dirty socks at the bottom of the clean laundry. Or more sinister pranks like stuffing the neighbor’s kid into the closet for hours during hide and seek. I wanted in on bigger fish – like investigating the effects of sprinkling rat pellets on my sister’s food or seeing how long she could hold her breath under water. One… two… three… four… (I think she has it coming for all the cruelty she’s been giving me) five… six…."

Today I got my papers in the post which stated my application for British citizenship had been accepted pending me attending a ceremony to swear my allegience to the Queen and this country first. And this year March I got my Bahamas RGN license updated so that i can practice nursing here. It seems i have come a long way baby. This country is now my home and i will do my best to honour, love, respect, contribute to and obey it.

Potomac Adventis book Signing at Potomac Adventis Health & Food Store

If you live in MD, DC or VA, come out to my awesome book signing event.
Yep, the power of "facts" on the internet. Ain't it grand? People take forwards as gospel. Do you all also believe that Barack Obama shouldn't be president because he's not an American citizen? It' says he's not on the internet!
I kinda wanted this…

You know what is sad in all this, the sentiment on this board is not about wanting to see justice, because frankly those on this board have shown they could care less about facts (not a single person here has seen the court documents of the case oth…
Because Sophia has made false claims! She said she won the case and that turned out to be a flat out lie! Why on earth would be you surprised she is now being scrutinized after misleading many?
you believe it because they say so? LOL! Name me ONE TIME where Sophia ever produced a court document about her case.
Well, that's what THEY are telling us, so we must BELIEVE it! We know this is the whole story, because THEY told us so, why would THEY lie? All of the information received on this case are from 100% accurate, objective and reliable sources, our very…
