Description
When a young boy witnesses a double homicide in the summer of 1964, the town’s unspoken code of secrecy and denial takes hold. As the boy grows into a man and becomes a lawyer, he embarks on a journey to uncover the truth behind that fateful night, confronting the painful lessons of his time and the hidden abuses that have shaped Havenwood’s present.
Through a series of interconnected stories and personal accounts, The Silent Truth weaves a complex tapestry of racial injustice, political corruption, and the search for redemption. With a keen eye for detail and a compassionate understanding of the human condition, Pasquale De Marco brings to life a cast of unforgettable characters whose lives are forever intertwined with the town’s dark legacy.
The Silent Truth delves into the corrosive effects of silence, the power of truth, and the resilience of the human spirit. It is a story about the courage to speak out, the power of forgiveness, and the enduring hope for a better tomorrow. In the words of renowned author Toni Morrison, “The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being.” The Silent Truth challenges us to confront the racism and injustice that continue to plague our society and to work towards a world where truth and justice prevail.
This book is essential reading for anyone who has ever grappled with the complexities of race, history, and the human condition. It is a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it, inspiring you to reflect on the power of truth and the importance of breaking the silence.
