Relative Secrets
‘A tender, and uplifting exploration of the mysteries and meaning of family, for three generations of women striving to fulfil their destinies’ —Rebecca Fraser, author and journalist
‘Relative Secrets is a beautifully observed exploration of the power and pain of family secrets, both past and present. Concealed truths surround each family like a web, but, once discovered, are they better revealed or kept hidden?’ —Emma Timpany, author of Travelling in the Dark
‘Helen Stancey’s style is beautifully immediate and natural, as if you were looking over the author’s shoulder, watching and listening, rather than reading. In this gripping saga of family secrets, Helen displays the storyteller’s gift of creating lively, sympathetic characters, and a plot that flows with a well-crafted rightness and inevitability. A highly relatable book’ —Fiona Vigo Marshall, author of Find Me Falling
