Thanks, Anastasia. I appreciate it. Just put Hold for Shannon on it, when
you're done.

something I can do.

Hi, all.
I have just placed Every Secret Thing by Lila Shaara on the step one
page for your validating pleasure. Find the synopsis below.
Gina Paletta should have been used to upheaval. From her childhood in
a small southern town to her career in Manhattan’s glamorous modeling world to
sudden,
unplanned motherhood, Gina has forever struggled to keep her life
under control. Now, at thirty-three–her “year of waking up”–she has moved with
her young
sons to upstate New York and reinvented herself as a college
professor. At last she can nurse the fragile hope of safety, the hope of
security.
But Gina learns that security is an illusion when a pair of police
detectives arrive at her doorstep. Two of Gina’s students have posted salacious
photographs
of her on a website. Even more troubling, these young men are
suspects in a local murder. Beneath the campus elms, amid the ivied masonry of
the collegiate
buildings, and in the libraries where she secrets herself from the
world, Gina Paletta must now contend with a new sensation: terror.
As the tension rises, Gina turns to her family and friends, only to
discover lies and violence beneath placid surfaces. Fearful for her safety and
that
of her children, determined to guard the new life she has built, Gina
comes to rely on the company and protection of one of the detectives assigned to
her case. Yet even as their relationship grows more complicated, the
danger around them mounts–and Gina finds herself marshaling reserves of
strength and
resolve she never dreamed existed.
Riveting and hypnotic, lyrical and tense, Every Secret Thing is a
remarkable debut: a provocative psychological drama about love, guilt, fear,
and every
secret thing that binds us together.
