Overcoming Injustice and Loss - Michael O'Brien
- Michaels Story
Wrongly jailed for the murder of a Cardiff newsagent in 1987. Michael O'Brien became known as one of the Cardiff Newsagent Three. After serving eleven years and 43 days in prison, he was cleared at the Court of Appeal in 1999. Michael subsequently became an author and motivational speaker and has written a number of books on the criminal justice system, which have won him four international awards.
While Michael was in prison, his daughter and stepfather passed away, and he suffered further tragedy in 2012 when he lost his son to a rare genetic condition.
In his new book, 'Overcoming Injustice and Loss', Michael does not despair at what has happened to him, but instead focuses, with therapist Stuart Coulden, on the positives that he has learned and can share with others, telling the story of how he has turned his life around from tragedy to triumph.
Michael hopes that this book will inspire many people who have suffered heartbreak and tragedy to realize that you can overcome whatever life throws at you.
Moving Mountains Books is a new series of self-help books based on true life stories in which people not only tell their stories of living in adversity but who work with us to offer positive advice and guidance for each particular life challenge.
