--Second Edition-- Six weeks into a blissful honeymoon, life turns into a nightmare when Susan's 9-year-old daughter is taken away and her husband is falsely accused of molestation. Dragged under the churning wheels of the child protection system, Susan is given a choice--either cooperate in prosecuting her innocent husband or lose her daughter. When the couple doesn't cave to pressure, Susan loses custody, and her husband is charged with a felony that carries a 16-year prison sentence. No one wants to hear the facts. No one wants to know the truth. It's the 1980s--a decade of unfounded abuse accusations, hysterical claims of orgies at daycare centers, families controlled by courts, and an abusive child protection system that had become the very thing it was created to eradicate. "We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself." ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer Wheels of Injustice is a curtains-pulled-back, true account of the 1980s out-of-control child protection system and the victims who risked everything to expose the egregious injustices and reform it. It's a tribute to God's faithfulness and a message of hope to others who have struggled to overcome adversity, fight injustice, or turn an upended life the right way around again. Praise for Wheels of Injustice-- "I could not put this book down! This is a heart-breaking, captivating multi-layered insight into the life of a truly extraordinary individual. A brilliantly written book that interweaves the journey of discovery and adventure of childhood into the adult world. Susan Gabriel is fearless in her account of the horror and devastation caused by the clumsy overreach of bureaucracy into our lives and their ability to plunge them into a living hell. This heroic account is a memoir for generations to refer to and a foundation stone for us all to stand on to see the goodness of a Creator whose faithful heart is always for his children to prevail in times of absolute adversity." --Michael Rowell, author of Leadership Upgrade "Not only was I captivated by Susan's story, but I was also compelled and very attentive to her writing style. Although I have not personally experienced the horrors this book describes, as a fellow INFJ, I was soooo able to relate to the author from a personality stand-point. And yes, even in her writing style. She writes like a true INFJ... I broke when the author wrote, 'I discovered--through experiencing it first-hand--the gift of God's grace and forgiveness.' "I believe that God's grace is best understood through experience. Head knowledge is a start, but receiving revelation at the heart level is what transcends one's relationship with Jesus. I am so thankful God led me to read this book at this point in time. It was no accident or coincidence. I enjoyed every minute and am feeling so encouraged. My prayer is that God continues to bless and keep the author and her family. And that this book gets into the hands of people who need a revelation of God's grace and faithfulness." -- Amazon Reader
