HILL OF SECRETS: A NOVEL
watercolor paper texture_edited.jpg

Throughout Hill of Secrets, music is played on the radio or heard at parties. Want to get into the mood of the times through music?

For copyright reasons, the lyrics are not included in the book, but I chose the songs I did often because the lyrics were appropriate to the action in the book at the moment. Follow the links below to the music the characters hear or sing.
