Secret (n.) - something kept hidden from knowledge or view; a mystery.In a dystopian future, an innocent picnic turns deadly!Elijah knows nothing of the elderly stranger's secret past--until her disappearance changes everything.A mysterious, ever-changing painting alarms a group of teens.The cannonball took Dario's legs . . . Will he lose his soul too?The arrival of a mysterious girl challenges everything about Jason's life.An unlicensed driver. His dad's truck. What could possibly go wrong?An old tale of murder and forbidden love leads to a modern day treasure hunt.For nothing is hid that shall not be made manifest, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come to light. (Luke 8:17 RSV-CE)
