What were they hiding? What would it take, Carlos agonizes, for his
parents to treat him as an adult? Loving and generous as they are,
why all the control, the secrecy, the manipulation from his
childhood on into his 20s? What is it they need to hide even after
he moves far from home for a responsible job as a news
photographer? Also puzzling and annoying is his oldest brother's
persistent bullying and not-so-subtle hints that Carlos is somehow
different. Carlos feels he has no choice-he delves into the family
background. What he finds is plenty upsetting, yet not nearly so
shocking as the sudden event that calls him home. When the family
mystery unravels, he encounters one love that couldn't happen and
another that gives his life, his ambition, and talent, an
unexpected direction. Tangle of Secrets explores the consequences
when parents can't reveal a truth. Relationships, terror, humor and
a satisfying ending blend into a modern tale by former journalist,
Beverly Harris. This short novel is especially suited for today's
routines-ideal for the air traveler, the vacationer, the reader
with a few undemanding hours. About the author After a career in
journalism at major newspapers, Beverly Harris wrote two nonfiction
books, Denim and Diamonds and At Your Service. The first is the
story of a remarkable woman who changed a tiny, comparatively
unknown town into a world-famous magnet for antiques hunters. The
second tells of a fellow who emigrated to the U.S. after reluctant
duty in Hitler's navy. In the course of a his hospitality career,
he served several American presidents. Tangle of Secrets is her
first work of fiction.
