She knows who she is ... or does she?
The epitome of an ordinary American woman – in her 60’s, a divorced mother of two grown children – Maggie Adams finds herself in an unexpected and emotionally-loaded predicament: she’s always been proud of her New England roots, but now, left devastated by her parents’ sudden deaths, her only-child-world is turned upside-down by a confession in a lawyer’s office and revelations in the attic “boogeyman” room - they’re not her roots at all. Flung by circumstance into unwanted truths, she struggles with tangled emotions, the challenge of loyalty, and the boundaries of love.
Drawn by flashbacks to 1943 and a past filled with secrets, Maggie is catapulted into unexpected (and unwanted) relationships. Suspense, devotion, hilarity, valor - all woven through the lives of three strong women who grapple with unanticipated tribulations for those they love - these are the motivating factors in this work of literary fiction.
Exemplified by recent hit TV shows, “Finding Your Roots,” “Who Do You Think You Are,” and “Long Lost Family,” Secrets in the Attic: Full Circle, Book 1, strikes that nerve.
Secrets in the Attic: Full Circle, Book One is an 85,000-word work of literary fiction, published by ABreeze Publishing in Smyrna, TN
