Murder leaves a wake of destruction in its path. Beyond the family of the victim, often there is a hidden story. PENNIES FROM AN ANGEL, INNOCENT LIVES BEHIND A CRIME is Tamara Pelosi's story of how her family suffered silently behind the glare of the ever-present media and came to terms with the crimes committed by her abusive ex-husband, Dan Pelosi.
In her forthcoming memoir, Pelosi reveals the horrendous events that began on October 21, 2001 when her husband became the primary suspect in the murder of Theodore Ammon. Three years later, he was found guilty and sentenced to twenty-five years to life. When the bludgeoned naked body of the wealthy financier was found in his East Hampton country estate, Tamara's life and the lives of their children were changed forever. The death of the New York millionaire instantly became a novelty that led to sensationalized media attention from Time Magazine, The Star, Paula Zahn Live, Primetime, Dateline, 48 Hours and even a Lifetime TV movie "Murder in the Hamptons."

In PENNIES FROM AN ANGEL, INNOCENT LIVES BEHIND A CRIME, Pelosi goes beyond the unintentional cruelty and shame of living on the sideline of a murder mystery to the craziness of a twenty-year dysfunctional marriage. This "tell all" story starts at the beginning as a pregnant teenage bride and describes the denial of Dan's repeated lies and unfaithfulness, and the wish that one day he would change, even after he left Tamara for the wealthy Generosa Ammon, marrying her one day after their divorce.

Depressed, shamed and stressed, she prayed to God for help finding strength; God sent an Angel. Feeling confused and alone, pennies miraculously appeared, giving her the faith to forge ahead. In her memoir, PENNIES FROM AN ANGEL, INNOCENT LIVES BEHIND A CRIME, readers will discover how Tamara found strength and will inspire other women currently suffering in abusive relationships.
We hope you?ll consider PENNIES FROM AN ANGEL, INNOCENT LIVES BEHIND A CRIME for review and winter coverage.

This has been the most inspirational book that I have read in a long time. I did not read it to find out the "dirt" about Danny, but to learn how my friend Tami and her family survived this horrific ordeal. I was brought to tears so many times as I read the book. What a gift over the Christmas holidays!!! I know that any person to read this book will find the serenity they are looking for and the ability to grow by Tami's experiences. Tami's strength was apparent throughout the book. I am so proud of her and her courage to write her memoirs. As importantly, to hear that she and her family triumphed through a very tragic experience.

by: Patricia

Just had to let you know that I just finished reading "Pennies From An Angel." I started it yesterday and couldn't put it down. What an amazing and interesting book. I absolutely loved it and think Tami is a remarkable woman. I, too, believe in pennies from heaven. I find them often, and save them in a favorite spot of mine. Thank you for writing this book. You and your mother did an extraordinary job. you are an inspiration to me. I love the song and play it while driving in my car. It's amazing and beautiful. What can i say, except, stay well and know that you have touched my heart. Patricia
