Synopsis

We use secrets to safeguard something of value. In each of these novellas, a character hides an important truth. In “Fortune,” a nephew who has power of attorney for his aged aunt keeps other family members from knowing how he manages her accounts. In “Subcutaneous,” a wife, desperate to divorce her bully husband, questions whether to reveal or stay silent about a discovery that could endanger her husband’s life. And in “Jade Turtle,” a mother hides the truth about her daughter’s biological father in order to protect her child. In each story, the secret complicates relationships and threatens the well being of the one who hides the truth.
