The following story is true. The following story is true.

This book is about my children's mysteries written between the ages of 9 and 16. The years would have been 1975 to 1982.

During this time, I was living in Daler Cottage, the given name of my childhood home. I was also writing poems, drawing, painting, and devising plays. I kept a diary between 1977 and 1988.

These mysteries are not what I thought. Ominous messages have been sneaking through - outside my conscious awareness. These messages have also leaked into my diaries like oil bubbling up through the ground.

Since a terrible revelation at the age of 51, I have been able to strip away the veneer to expose the true meaning of these stories. My diaries illuminate the circumstances surrounding them.

This book describes the decoding process and what I have learned.
