About the Book

What was it that two best friends, Ruby and Bobby, witnessed from high up in the sanctuary of their tree house? What chain of events will be pushed to the back of their minds, until a court case twenty years later, triggers memories and secrets that have remained silent? The rural suburbs of Brisbane should have been an idyllic place for Ruby and Bobby to grow up in. Their tree house retreat, set high in a mulberry tree gives them a safe place, to not only share their friendship and problems but to also watch the events of the yards nearby. However as the years pass and the two become teenagers, the naive Ruby is exposed to the sinister events that Bobby has to deal with in his family life. When the two friends eventually go their separate ways, the childhood events become a distant memory. However, when evil deeds are exposed years later, both Ruby and Bobby are forced to face up to the reality of what they saw so many years earlier. This is a story about the secrets that children keep, the strength that comes from a childhood friendship and a special family love that overcomes the hardships of the past. Reviewers' comments 'Silkworm Secrets' absolutely blew me away! It was beautifully written - filled with deep emotion and heartache, love and abiding friendship. I just absolutely LOVED this book! Aussie author Lea Davey has written a heartwarming story that touches on issues such as domestic violence, family and friendship. Yes, it's true, this novel explores deeper and darker issues - but life can be like that, complex, difficult, unfair. A rollercoaster ride of emotion, but well worth it. This quintessential Australian novel is a must read.

About the Author :
Lea Davey writes contemporary Australian Fiction and 'Silkworm Secrets' is her second novel. Her first novel 'The Shack by the Bay' was published in 2016 and has captured the interest of both Australian and international readers, drawn to the intriguing blend of Australian characters, unique landscapes and story of romance. 'Silkworm Secrets' has been recognised as a novel that not only exposes the secrets that children keep, but also highlights the effects of troublesome family lives. Although the book does cover some darker aspects of family life the enduring thread that weaves the characters and story together, are the beautiful relationships and the goodness that exists in so many families. Lea draws on her experiences gained from travelling around Australia and years spent studying and teaching history to bring together compelling contemporary fiction. Passionate about literacy, she believes in the power of books to not only provide entertainment, relaxation and enjoyment but also to educate readers in both historical and contemporary issues and events. lea.davey@hotmail.com www.facebook.com/valeenapress
