'What happens when you keep a secret? A collection of interwoven stories involving academic life, shifting relationships and romantic intrigue. The stories in this novella are each told in the first person. They offer different perspectives on the same event but at the same time move the whole narrative forward. Each one shows how an event or condition involving a secret can affect people’s lives, like ripples in a pond. Through these stories Diana Encel delicately explores human passions and frailties within an interconnected web.' (Publisher's blurb)
