Secrets of Time by Michael Bennett Wilson
In a small seaside village, secrets of the past intersect and lives in the present intertwine. In Michael Bennett Wilson’s debut novel Secrets of Time, high schooler Jerome slowly unravels the secrets this small town has been hiding for many years.
A former basketball coach now a closed-off shop teacher; a family that runs the bank and seems to run the town; young love threatened by the past; the star athlete turned soldier; a nurse trying to keep her life together through medication; the fisherman with a little insight into the past. These are just a few of the lives Secrets of Time explores and uncovers deeper truths within. Wilson intimately explores each character as they struggle with pain in their own ways. Sometimes the story unfolds like a mystery, leaving the reader to wonder what is going on behind each character’s mask. Other parts of the book are reminders of everyday life and the people around us — and how we affect those people each and every day without realizing it.
Secrets of Time is available in paperback or as an e-book.
