The Open Gate to Paradise: A Lifeline for the Wrongfully Convicted and Their Families
What do you do! Suddenly you're in Hell. You've just been wrongly convicted.
All at once you're drowning; your loved one was just thrown in jail.
With nowhere to turn, how do you even begin to fight to get out?

"The Open Gate to Paradise" comes highly recommended by the people who have suffered this first-hand; the wrongly convicted and their friends and families. A no-nonsense grassroots account of what to do when you're "buried alive", this book gives you the true keys you need to freedom.

Lindy Morelli, the author of "Alabaster Heart" (her autobiography), is an expert in helping people in this difficult situation. In "The Open Gate to Paradise" she offers a stronghold of hope in turning the tragedy of a wrongful conviction into triumph. In it you will learn how to:

Not lose your mind
Overcome despair
Develop stamina
Overcome legal pitfalls
Find lasting purpose
Become a spiritual giant

"The Open Gate to Paradise" is the only book of its kind. In it you'll find the keys to reach success.

Lindy Morelli has 40 years' experience in working as a chaplain/counselor with the incarcerated. She has been a long-time advocate of the wrongly convicted throughout the U.S. and beyond. She is profoundly empathetic, since she has had a loved one who is wrongly convicted in prison. Having been blind since birth, she has overcome insurmountable obstacles, which has enabled her to help others in extraordinary ways. In 1993 she received the distinguished honor of being named Northeast Woman, which is reserved for women of excellence who stand out in the fields of humanitarian and beneficent works. Likewise, in 1994 she founded Lighthouse in Scranton, Inc., a religious outreach providing comfort, guidance and hope to the distressed.

"The Open Gate to Paradise" is a small but power-packed book that will help you to overcome a wrongful conviction and transform your life from despair to hope, sadness to joy, and isolation to true peace and freedom.

In the "Open Gate to Paradise", Lindy Morelli gives a powerful testimony of overcoming disappointment in finding true peace. Her depth of self-revelation encourages people of all faiths and philosophies to find comfort and lasting hope amidst tragedy. The suggestions given in this book are valuable to individuals in any circumstance.

--Fr. Michael Salvagna

The simple but profound content of this book is a product of the intensely lived experiences of a loved one of a wrongly convicted person. It succeeds in expressing suffering with serenity, while yet avoiding cold detachment. Those who read it thoughtfully will be helped by it.

--Joe W., friend of a wrongly convicted man.

"The Open Gate To Paradise" is a a valuable guide for anyone who has been through the nightmare of being falsely accused and imprisoned. Tailored specifically for the wrongfully-convicted and their loved ones, it offers a profound roadmap towards reclaiming our lives and finding hope when the world seems to have turned upside down.
