Synopsis

Once at the top of her field, investigative reporter Amelia Collins has been struggling with the loss of her father. When her story exposing political corruption at the highest level is shelved, her temper erupts, putting her career in jeopardy at a moment when a rival is poised to take her place. As she deals with the fallout, she's given a chance to run for federal politics. With just one weekend to decide on the course of her future, Amelia looks to her mother for guidance only to discover, before his death, her father left her a mystery to solve. A century earlier, her great-aunt walked away from a similar political opportunity despite encouragement from one of Canada's best-known suffragists.

As Amelia digs through family archives to find out why Great-Aunt Frankie abandoned her political dream, she uncovers a web of violence, sudden disappearances and a mysterious fire that destroyed the Canadian parliament buildings.

No Secrets Among Sisters is a work of historical fiction set in Toronto in both World War I and current day; it highlights women's continuing struggle for equality, representation and fair treatment in political spheres.
