Books by Carole Appleton

This powerful story, based on true events, pulls back the curtain on elder financial abuse, family conflict, and the hidden costs of greed. When Gramma’s final wishes were derailed by those who claimed to care for her, the family was left to untangle a web of lies, legal battles, and heartbreak.

Through grief, isolation, and an uphill fight for justice, one truth became clear: not everyone who starts with you is meant to finish with you.

Betrayal of Trust is more than a family's story—it's a cautionary tale and a call to awareness. Blending raw honesty with lessons learned, this book shines a light on the importance of vigilance, resilience, and protecting the legacies our loved ones worked so hard to leave behind.

If you've ever faced betrayal, fought for justice, or carried the weight of protecting someone you love, this book will remind you that even in the fog, there is truth—and even in loss, there can be legacy.
