Produktbeschreibung
A hidden past. A DNA match. A secret that rewrites everything. Journalist Bea Bennett thought she was writing a simple story about at-home DNA kits-until a message from a stranger upends everything she thought she knew about her family. What begins as a reluctant assignment quickly becomes personal as Bea unearths a trail of old letters, faded photographs, and a matchbook that survived a fire no one talks about. Piece by piece, she begins to uncover the life her grandmother Ruby never spoke of-a life shaped by girlhood dreams, wartime heartbreak, and one decision that changed the course of generations. Told in alternating timelines between Bea's search for answers and Ruby's life in 1940s Tennessee, The Thing She Didn't Tell Me is a gripping story of family secrets, inherited silence, and the power of finally speaking the truth. Perfect for fans of The Secret Life of Bees, The Last Thing He Told Me, and Before We Were Strangers.
Autorenporträt
Jacqueline Russell writes about memory, girlhood and the tangled threads that connect generations of women across time. Her debut novel, The Thing She Didn't Tell Me, blends literary fiction and family mystery in a story about secrets, inheritance and the search for truth. A lifelong Kentuckian, Russell draws inspiration from small towns, quiet kitchens and the storytelling tradition of the South. When she's not writing, she works in healthcare marketing, tends a chaos garden full of zinnias and believes in the saving power of laughter, community and a well-worn porch chair.
