It revolves around a teenage girl who gets lured into the fight for women's right to vote. The title comes from the fact that she collects and keeps secrets--including a very dark one involving a murder her grandfather may or may not have committed. I am also in the outlining stages for another novel set in the present, with flashbacks to the 1970s. No title for that one just yet. Release dates? Nothing immediate. (less)

I've combed through the book block and returned it to the publisher. We are working hard to have it available sometime this summer. Thanks for asking, Queenie!(less)
