| Publisher Description: In Downe, secrets are contained within objects and a special energy exclusive to the community members fuels them, making the objects come alive. The objects are then sent to the Hall of Secrets where they are kept safe and secure by The Secret Keeper. Growing up, sixteen-year-old Ellie Corrine always knew that her place in the community of Downe was different; her grandfather Oskar had made it clear that Secret Keeping was her birthright. It isn't until after Grandpa Oskar passes away, though, that Ellie inherits the role of Secret Keeper, a respected position she has been training for since the age of nine. However, as she dives deeper into her responsibilities, she begins to learn that things aren't always what they seem. With the help of Tavis, her assistant Ruth-Anne's nephew, and clues left by Grandpa Oskar, Ellie begins to unravel the dark truths of Downe. How far should she go to protect herself and the members of the community? And are some things truly better left unsaid? |
