| For twelve long years they remembered. For twelve long years they plotted. And now Captain Driscoll was going to pay for what he had done to them during the war.
They weren’t going to kill him right away. First there would be only little things, irritating things, that would build and grow and tighten until Captain Driscoll became afraid. Then they’d begin their reign of terror. That would be the best part. The three revenge-hungry men would savor those moments like a good wine.
And when Captain Driscoll was a broken, sobbing man, when his sanity was almost gone, they would murder him.

Is there something about you that you hope no one ever finds out? You're not alone. Everyone has secrets-hurts, abuses, bad habits, fears. Big or small, secrets can destroy you from the inside out. The good news is that confession is more powerful than secrets-and the fear that keeps you from telling them.
In What's Your Secret? Aaron Stern shows you the powerful roots of keeping secrets, the difference between "good" secrets and "bad" secrets, what confession is (and isn't), and how to overcome a persistent enemy who wants you to keep your secrets hidden.
Using personal stories and anonymous confessions from others, Aaron draws you into the joy of the secret-free life as you live out the freedom God longs for you to have.
