Victoria Hale

Opis

Growing up in the ghetto of Jamaica, West Indies, Victoria Hale discovers at an early age that she is missing a father, she is -too black- to matter, and she is too poor to escape. Following her rape and teenage pregnancy, she begins her lifelong circuitous journey to self-discovery. Follow Victoria's story as she immigrates to America, discovers the wonder of New York City and New Jersey, and begins her climb up the corporate ladder. Life is golden-until a marriage gone incredibly wrong and a deadly addiction sends her on a downward spiral, one that leads to incarceration and a trial for attempted murder. Victoria Hale eventually rises from the ashes of condemnation to the beauty of self-discovery and triumphs over her past.
