The Year of Necessary Lies: A Novel

One amazing year in a remarkable womanÂ¹s life journey becomes the inspiration for generations when she takes a huge risk, follows her heart, embraces forbidden love, and unwittingly becomes the champion of a winged world that is on the brink of extinction. Itâ€™s 1903, the world is poised for drastic change, and Julia Briton is a naive, beautiful Boston socialite who suffers a series of devastating losses and discovers that her beloved husband is involved in the plume tradeâ€”the massive slaughter of birds for use in the fashion industry. When Julia is secretly ushered into the early 20th century by a group of brazen female activists, she boldly risks everything and embarks on a perilous journey to the wilds of untamed Florida, a place of great danger where men will stop at nothing to get what they want and where one man, and a faithful friend, force her to make yet more life-changing decisions. Years later, when Juliaâ€™s great-granddaughter, Kelly, discovers some hidden tape recordings in her famous great-grandmotherÂ¹s dresser and learns the real truth about Juliaâ€™s year, a year that changed the course of history, she must decide what to do with her grandmotherÂ¹s incredible legacy. Will she keep the real â€œsecret of the yearâ€, or will she be brave enough to follow her own heart?
