Brittle Diamonds by Hilary Walker
Starts with why author wrote this book. Such a subject that is still news today.
Priest in the seminary and the young boys that are abused.
Like English as they stick with one another and gossip about the neighbors. So much so that the priest knows what vehicles the others drive.
He had met a man on the train that opened up to him and they meet again after Matt had almost hit the horse and his tenant. He's lost his job and needs to confront his wife about it.
The priest won't be leading church after Sunday's mass because of the 30 year old abuse charges. The church will investigate.
There are quite a few characters but they all come together when least expected with their problems.
Love that it's Easter time and spring flowers are coming up. Love how they look forward to confessing to the priest.
Like all the secrets others are hiding but will come out soon, over time...
Especially love the different ages and how everything that is going on effects them all.
About the author is included at the end. Other works by the author are highlighted at the end.
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.
