Summary
The Shadow Of A Badge: A Spiritual Memoir is the first of a trilogy of books written by Lillie Leonardi.

Her story reflects of the visitation of Angels at the Flight 93 crash site in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. This is her personal interpretation of the historic facts leading up to and following the events of September 11, 2001. Lillie Leonardi s memoir also details her diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and her on-going journey to heal and recover from its effects
