Susanna is unavailable in the Masoretic Text (MT), which is the Hebrew collected centuries after the destruction of the 2nd Temple in 70 AD. It is available in the Old Greek (OG), collected by diasporic Hebrews centuries before Christ. The OG is the Older Testament used by the authors of the Newer Testament. Nevertheless, the OG tells you to read the Hebrew that preceded it and preceded the MT, most of which the MT preserves.
Susanna's story is a story of hope for those who face injustice in the here-and-now. This was shared, digitally and telephonically, with the youth of Mount Calvary Savior of the World EOTC in Nashville, Tennessee.
