About the book
What this book is about.
The House Where Truth Went Quiet begins around a white wooden house on Bell Street in Pembroke, Ontario, and tells a completely fictional story about a family that has learned how to live around what it does not say.
When Eleanor Mercer receives a letter from Jonah, the son who has been gone for twenty-seven years, the story the family has lived with begins to lose its authority. What follows is a novel about love, silence, faith, regret, forgiveness, belonging, and the cost of asking one person to carry what everyone else refuses to face.
This is Book One of the three-novel Truth Series, built around ten truths carried through story rather than instruction.
