FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New Novel Based in Part on Real Life
Events Dramatizes Child Custody Battle Set Against Kentucky’s Equestrian
Community and West Palm Beach Horse Show Scene
“God help the man who comes between a
mother and her child.”
Thus begins Unbridled Injustice,
a compelling new novel by first-time author Genie Akin, pen name Ellie
Boatman, who plots a riveting tale based in part on real life events that
brings its readers to outrage and frustration, page after controversial
page. This book imparts the painful reality of domestic abuse, child
molestation, an intense custody battle, along with jury tampering, and
although Genie takes poetic license with its ending, her war is still
being waged.
Ellie Conger knew life couldn’t get much
better than this: three wonderful children, a successful business raising
and training show horses, great friends, a socially prominent husband with
influential connections -- but it took only a few pieces of paper to bring
this idyllic lifestyle crashing down around her. Now Ellie is plunged
into a complex and emotionally devastating legal war for custody of her
children against a vindictive man bent, not merely on winning, but on her
complete destruction.
Early reviews of the fast paced
Unbridled Injustice have been positive with critics and the public
saying:
• DAMN THIS BOOK!! It took me for such an
emotional roller coaster ride that I've yet to settle down. First shock,
then anger, then fear followed up by white knuckled anger, pity and
sadness. Worst part is that I couldn't put it down! --Tandy Rice,
Nashville Entertainment Executive
• A chilling tale of the worst -- and best
– of women facing the legal system. --Patsi Bale Cox, Best- selling
author, with two books on the New York Times Top 10
• In this increasingly wicked and cowardly
world, thank God there are still a few individuals with enough courage to
stand up and say “no more.” --Richard A. Getty, well-known Lexington Civil
Lawyer
• The things you put up with when you
don't have a gun. --Michael Davidson, Family Law Attorney, Lexington, KY
Set against the bucolic backdrops of
Lexington, Kentucky’s equestrian community and the trendy horse show scene
in West Palm Beach, Florida, Unbridled Injustice chronicles
one woman’s struggle against a corrupt legal system where justice is only
available to the highest bidder and the well being of children is
secondary to the egos of lawyers, judges and psychologists.
Readers who enjoy books of women’s rights
and empowerment as well as legal dramas will be drawn to this novel as
well as active equestrians.
