Rea Frey’s latest novel, the compelling family saga, SECRETS OF OUR HOUSE tells the story of Desi, a wife and mother who thrives for perfection: both at work and at home—
But then real life gets in the way.
This story of two intertwined families—tested by a terminal illness, Mother Nature, and the deep dark secret that Desi has held onto through her marriage—is what gives the characters in SECRETS OF OUR HOUSE its bittersweet resonance—and it’s explosive ending.
I talk to Rea Frey about how this plot came to her; The research she did on surviving the harshest forces of nature—something her characters must do; Why it’s important to allow our children to follow their own paths; And why revealing the secrets and lies we feel may destroy us may in fact set us free.
