Publisher's Synopsis
In this captivating autobiography, Mozelle takes readers on an extraordinary voyage through her life-a life that, despite her remarkable career as an international forensic handwriting expert for over 35 years-was marked by unimaginable struggles and profound tragedies. From the very beginning, her story is one of resilience. Adopted at birth by wealthy alcoholics, she was raised in a Victorian hotel that echoed with pain and loneliness. Bullied, abused, and burdened with immense grief, Mozelle found solace in the arms of symbolism-a protective octopus and a guiding raven- offering her a refuge from the overwhelming trauma that threatened to consume her. But even these guardians couldn't shield her from the depths of despair, as evidenced by her first suicide attempt at the tender age of nine. Thus began her journey of transcending the confines of organized religion to forge a spiritual path of healing and purpose. Within the pages are over 250 captivating photos and graphics as she bares her soul with unwavering honesty. She fearlessly delves into the battles she faced with Asperger's, anger, anxiety, self-sabotage, codependency, forgiveness, and multiple sclerosis. As a retired mental health professional, she reflects upon the moments that slipped through her fingers, the missed opportunities, and the relationships left fractured in her wake. But through it all, her indomitable spirit shines through in every obstacle-such as surviving a relentless stalker and outsmarting a hired gun. Not a tale of blame or self-pity, this is a testament to her unwavering courage and vulnerability. As you eagerly turn each page, you will be captivated by her story. But beyond the suspense and intrigue, it is a beacon of strength-an inspiration for anyone embarking on their own quest for authenticity and inner fortitude. This book is a remarkable testament to the power of resilience and the boundless possibilities that lie within the human spirit.
