Augustus Family Trilogy

Author: Tamara Merrill

Synopsis

FAMILY LIES - As the story begins the world is rushing toward World War II and society is changing rapidly, but patriarch Walter Augustus is determined to protect his family and their way of life. The Augustus family has many secrets and it has always been an unwritten law that what happens in the family stays in the family so when Sharon Chatsworth begins to hint about the Augustus secrets in her gossip column the family must face the lies and secrets or be torn apart.

FAMILY MATTERS - A secret told is a secret no more. World War II has ended and life is returning to normal for the mighty Augustus family.  The history, built by the Augustus family, on lies and secrets, appear to keep them protected against the rapidly expanding world but secrets seldom remain secret when the younger generation questions everything the older generation believes. The Augustus family is crumbling.

FAMILY MYTHS - Three long years have passed since Elizabeth ran away.  Neither John nor Michael have ever gotten over the loss. They have hired private detectives but she seems to have left no trail.  Now Elizabeth is building secrets of her own, adding another layer to the Augustus Family legacy. She has chosen to build a life far from the family, where she hides in plain sight, and proves that a successful strong woman is capable of almost anything.
