Braided Secrets Theresa Schimmel

BRAIDED SECRETS is told through the voices of two sisters in a close-knit Catholic family in 1963. A family drama unfolds when Maggie falls in love with an older man and the protective father forbids her to see him. As the younger sister, Petey, says, "Looking back, I wish I could erase that Sunday when it all started." Instead, events take a tragic and unpredictable course that almost unravels the family, challenges their faith, and threatens the close bond between the sisters. Praise for Braided Secrets: "This is a story that will keep you riveted." - Martha Reynolds (Author of bestseller, Bits of Broken Glass) "Take some time to sit and read this book and listen to voices you will never forget. You will be moved by the story she tells." - Terrence McCarthy (author of memoir, You Had to Be There)
