Produktbeschreibung
Tina Alexis Allen, the youngest of thirteen in a devout family, grew up in suburban Washington, D.C., in a home dominated by Sir John?an English orphan, ex-soldier, and Catholic servant so diligent that he had been knighted by the pope. As Tina became a smart-mouthed teenager, she learned the language of secrets, including her sexuality. When Sir John brought Tina into his successful Catholic travel agency as a protégé she realized that he was even more expert than she in the complicated work of secret keeping. Together, father and daughter create a private world?reveling in their true selves, pushing boundaries, and living parallel double lives. But what begins as a tender confession quickly spirals into booze-soaked nights of sex, drugs, and lies. And, as Tina dives deeper into her father's life, she discovers a deeply conflicted man whose commitment to his faith has led him down dangerous pathways that she could never have dreamed of. Hiding Out is a memoir of a father and daughter and an astonishing story of self-discovery, the family ties that bind, the shame that binds even tighter, and the power of the truth to set us free.
