secrets those we keep from one
another and those we bury within

Secrets are revealed that change everyone s lives in ways they could never have imagined. Reflective and textured, That Was Then is a story of adolescent trauma and its effect on adult lives. It is also a story of the destructive power of withholding. Ultimately, That Was Then is a story of love appearing in unexpected and varied forms..
