Hello!
I'm Barbara Powers Doody
I love telling a great story. I grew up in a rural area in Northern Maine.I lived in my grandparents' farm with my mom, my sisters and a variety of pets including a horse named Lucky. I've been writing since age ten. I fell in love with the written word when I discovered I could manipulate the words into a story. When I was little we listened to a show on the radio every Sunday morning. It was called, "Tell Me A Story Aunt Bee." I fell fast for the stories and one day I discovered I could write a story of my own. That made me happy because I realized I would never run out of stories. Now I get to share a very important and special story with you. Happy reading!
In a remote orphanage nestled deep in the woods of Maine, four boys—Miles, Billy, Charlie, and Tom—struggle to survive under the cruel watch of Sister Margret, a manipulative nun with dark intentions.
Bound not just by circumstance but by a haunting secret from a childhood prank gone terribly wrong, the boys make a pact of silence—one they vow to carry to their graves. But when a mysterious girl named Blaine enters their lives, everything begins to unravel. Her arrival sparks a dangerous chain of events that threatens to expose the truth—and test the strength of their loyalty, their courage, and their bond.
