The Secret Collector

By Beem Weeks

Violet Marie Glass has a hunger for adventure. She dreams of leaving her family's farm one day for a life in any big city that will have her.

As the teenager comes of age in 1910 Alabama, she collects secrets during her nightly traipsing with best friend Ruthie Sender. Most of her secrets are harmless experiences rooted in the girl's own rebellion-she drinks liquor, dances to ragtime music, and mingles with a group of determined suffragettes.

It's during a visit with her oldest sister that Violet becomes aware of a long-kept family secret that carries the potential for ruin for the entire Glass clan.

Life begins to unravel when a missing neighbor turns up dead. Violet suspects her grandfather may have had a hand in the man's demise. Will the girl turn him in to the authorities, or will she add this secret to her growing collection?

Violet soon discovers that a girl can keep only so many secrets before the weight of them becomes unbearable.
