A Little House of Secrets

Through a miniature house received from France, the De Vitta family reconstructs a past of love, wars, and secrets. Fragments from Odile’s diary, which transport us to late 18th-century France, hidden letters, concealed miniature keys, and a trail of clues lead the De Vitta heirs to embark on a journey into their family’s past.
A Little House of Secrets, as its title suggests, is a novel in which enigmas unfold and are resolved; but it is also a story that narrates a tale from long ago, one that will forever change the course of a family’s life.
