NEWNAN, Ga., July 8 /Standard Newswire/ -- A successful, fulfilled life suddenly torn apart by a totally unforeseen tragedy was put back together again by a totally unforeseen intervention -- a miracle!

Jackie Carpenter, a loving mother and grandmother, church organist and businesswoman, had it all and would have given it all up in a moment to rescue her son facing trial for felony murder.

The story of a false charge that crushed a family is told in dramatic fashion by Jackie Carpenter in The Bridge: Between Cell Block A and a Miracle is Psalm 91 (ISBN 9781615796847, 2010 118 pgs, $19.99.

Carpenter's son, Jason Veitch, was building eight homes and was losing thousands of dollars to copper theft. Upon the advice of a police deputy, Jason stood guard one night at a home under construction. When encountering three intruders, his shotgun accidently fired and killed a man. Subsequently some shady actions by the police deputy led to trumped up charges of felony murder.

After her son's arrest Carpenter busied herself researching everything. "I became an attorney, a police officer, a judge, a juror, a forensic expert," says Carpenter. "Then two weeks before trial, I realized that everything I researched was to no avail. There was nothing else that I could do to help Jason. So I turned Jason over to God and a miracle happened."

In the midst of crisis, Carpenter stopped at CVS to pick up a prescription. Her eyes were drawn to the Choice Book Stand book entitled Psalm 91, God's Shield of Protection! It Saved My Life. Carpenter turned to the Book of Psalms for comfort and guidance, and throughout the trial shared with family members stories taken from the Psalm 91 book.

"Ten long months we lived in the very pit of hell where Satan viciously attacked our family continuously," recalls Carpenter. "Then at 3:30 pm on April 16, 2009 in the Coweta County Courthouse, the judge announced, 'The jury has reached a decision' and then God showed up!"

A native of Georgia, Jackie Carpenter say she knows God inspired her to write The Bridge and followed His leading throughout the writing process. "I am God's Secretary. He dictated and I typed."
