Bok av Aleah Holland RN
Aleah Holland chronicles her life as an abandoned child growing up on the dangerous, relentless streets of Brooklyn in an area called the "Nineties." Aleah escaped the horrific evils of her childhood, adapting to whatever means necessary for survival only to be faced with the unimaginable in her adulthood now.
A young single mother of two, a Registered Nurse, an Entrepreneur falls victim to a brutal and vicious attack from the hands of a law enforcement officer.
This disgusting, disturbing, demoralizing ordeal is witnessed by her six year old daughter. Aleah's life takes an ultimate turn of pending indictments, conspiracy, corruption, and malpractice. Aleah finds herself for the first time in her life feeling like a victim. Overcome with depression, and the inability to function she loses everything she worked and fought so hard for.
Who can she turn to when she is deceived by key influential people who have been placed in society to protect us?
BEAT mixes just the right ingredients to make an irresistible best seller. Take one victimized woman, corrupt law enforcement officials, add a host of colorful characters, even a celebrity or a two, blend in a super size portion of drama, sex, bureaucracy, sprinkled with a secret or a few, candid humor, power self-expressive poetry, and witness the transformation from painful situations to powerful realizations, and before you know it you're hooked on BEAT.
Her words speak directly to the victim within all of us. Her courageous story will empower you.
"What happened to Aleah Holland should not have happen to anyone. Aleah shares her story of that night of horror,"
