Writing a book was never Elizabeth Castrillo’s intention. On paper, she never imagined that she would be reliving one of the worst days of her life. However, some tales don’t let you go. There are some tales that must be told.
Her story of the day her grandson Turtle passed away and the ensuing chaos is told in Only God Can Unravel. of her daughter being taken into custody for killing him. Of the uncertainty, the suffering, the perplexity. And of clinging to God despite the fact that everything seemed to be crumbling, including her faith.
This memoir doesn’t have a tidy conclusion. It’s disorganized. It’s truthful. As she challenges everything she believed to be true, the grandmother and mother are trying their hardest to keep their family together. It’s about praying in the middle of the night, crying in hospital parking lots, appearing in courtrooms and jailhouses, and attempting to figure out where God was throughout it all.
Elizabeth doesn’t try to make herself or anyone else seem flawless. She expresses her own uncertainties. her own culpability. The times when she wished she had acted differently. She does, however, express her continued optimism that the truth will be revealed. that the name of her daughter will be cleared. that we will never forget what was lost.
Faith, not the glossy kind you see on bumper stickers, is the subject of this book. It’s about the type that hardly holds. The kind you whisper when no one else is around. When everything else is gone, you cling to that kind.
“I just wanted people to know what really happened,” Elizabeth says. Not the news that was broadcast. Not what others said. Just what we experienced. what we are still experiencing. I didn’t write it to win people over. I wrote it to let people know they are not alone if they are experiencing something that seems insurmountable.
Only God Can Unravel isn’t limited to believers. It’s for everyone who has ever lost a loved one. Whoever has ever had to endure something they weren’t prepared for? Anybody who has ever had to keep their composure when everything around them was crumbling. It’s a heartbreaking tale. However, it’s also a tale of perseverance.
About The Author:
Elizabeth Castrillo is a devoted mother, grandmother, and woman of deep faith. Although her life has been marked by challenges that would break most, she firmly believes that God works through every heartbreak, question, and quiet whisper of the soul.
Raised in a world that didn’t always protect its children, Elizabeth learned early that survival required strength and faith. Her journey has taken her from trauma to triumph, and through it all, she has clung to God as her anchor.
After the tragic death of her grandson and the legal nightmare that followed, Elizabeth found herself writing, not just to cope, but to speak truth and stand in the gap for her family. What began as a personal outpouring has become a mission to encourage others walking through fire.
Today, she lives in Arizona, surrounded by family, faith, and the belief that stories can heal. Her first book, “Only God Can Unravel,” is a bold reminder that God can redeem every thread, no matter how tangled life gets.
Elizabeth Castrillo’s Book, “Only God Can Unravel,” is now available on the official website and Amazon.
