In Family Secrets, twelve-year-old Marie Ann Collins looks back on her childhood in Guyana, where family life was filled with warmth, tradition, faith, laughter, and secrets no child should have to carry.
Marie lives with her parents, Mary and John, her brothers Brian and Robin, and her beloved great-grandmother, Edna Brown. Her days are shaped by school, church, cousins, holidays, pets, family meals, and the simple joys of growing up in a close-knit home. But behind the familiar routines are arguments, hidden pain, unanswered questions, and truths that slowly begin to surface.
As Marie watches the adults around her struggle with grief, betrayal, illness, and old wounds, she begins to understand that every family carries stories that are spoken aloud and others that are buried in silence. The loss of her best friend Jenny, the death of her great-grandmother, and painful experiences within her own family force Marie to face fear, confusion, and heartbreak at a young age.
Told in a sincere and deeply personal voice, Family Secrets is a coming-of-age story about innocence, memory, survival, and the strength it takes to move forward. It captures both the beauty of childhood and the heavy emotional cost of family secrets. Above all, it is a story about faith, resilience, and a young girl learning that even painful beginnings can become part of a larger journey toward healing.
