What we hide doesn’t vanish. It waits, folding itself into corners of memory, lingering in every shadow, whispering in moments we think we’ve left behind. Some truths are patient. Some secrets are relentless.

"All The Broken People is an engaging story enclosed in lush Georgia. Tension and suspicion runs high… The story explores the good aspects of “bad people”, the bad aspects of “good people”, and all the complexity in between."
