About this ebook
SO MANY SECRETS
An engaging, heart-wrenching story of coming-of-age in a small Alberta town struggling to come to grips with the aftermath of World War II. The people in Deep Creek are trying to get back to normal, but there is nothing normal about Nathalie Smythe's life.
The youngest child in a family still torn apart by complications caused by war, Nathalie (Tally) talks to ghosts.When she discovers something that is "…not the kind of thing you can tell a granddad either, no matter how dead he is" she confides in her 'Dearest Diary', her only constant friend. But when her friend Mary is accused of a crime she didn't commit and is in danger of being sent to the Red Deer Provincial Training School for Mental Defectives, Tally is forced into action when her friend Mary is accused of a crime didn't commit and is in danger of being sent to the Red Deer Provincial Training School of Mental Defectives.
As small secrets beget larger secrets how can two intrepid children bring to light enough proof to convince adults the truth about what they have discovered?
