Mother was an emotionally damaged woman shrouded in depression and dark secrets. Father was a man plagued by alcoholism who lived in a state of drunken evasion for many years before jumping ship. Kathleen Rose Morgan was born into this troubled family and merged with a community plagued by toxic male aggression, submissive women, wannabe Mafia brutes, charlatan holy men and women, and lurid and criminal goingson-all made possible by cheek-turners, complicit and fearful enablers, and an ever-present, overarching code of silence.

This is the story of the poignant journey Kathleen embarks upon after the long-hidden details of her trauma finally come to light-a quest to seek deep healing through truth, nature, energy medicine, and after-death communication. After a shocking deathbed confession from Mother, Kathleen's healing path joins an investigation into a shadowy past where the puzzle of repressed memories and childhood secrets is painstakingly assembled. Raw and intense, The Seller of Secrets is a memoir of how early adverse experiences shape a fractured life with limitations, and how freeing oneself from fear and the muteness of shame is the key to true happiness.

Kathleen Rose Morgan is a mother, writer, musician, and practitioner and explorer of various methods of energy medicine and the art of healing trauma. Originally from Staten Island, New York, she traded ferry boat rides for her kayak when she moved to Vermont. Adverse childhood experiences ended Kathleen’s official education prematurely. She self-educated through books, music, mentors, and the cultural offerings of NYC where she split her time between playing guitar and singing in a metal band and working at large law firms as a legal administrative assistant.

Reviews for The Seller of Secrets: A Memoir

“Morgan’s deep dive into healing from a traumatizing childhood at the hands of her family and the Catholic Church is a stunning indictment of the malevolence human beings can perpetrate on others. Long indoctrinated into her family’s mythology that ‘it’s a great life if you don’t weaken’ Morgan perfected the art of compartmentalization. Through Reiki, the use of mediums, and Brennan Healing Science, along with her own created family, she forges her path out of trauma, no longer willing to protect others from their own sins.” —Gretchen Cherington, author of Poetic License: A Memoir and The Butcher, The Embezzler, and The Fall Guy: A Family Memoir of Scandal and Greed in the Meat Industry “The Seller of Secrets is a stunning account of the impact of child sexual and emotional abuse and an enlightening illustration of how healing is possible, even from the grip of deepest trauma. Morgan’s story is a testament to the human spirit and the importance of looking straight into and naming the truth, even when that truth is painful and ugly. The reader sees how the courage to face our fears sets us free, and we do not have to walk this road alone.” —Liz Kinchen, author of Light in Bandaged Places: Healing in the Wake of Young Betrayal
