Set in Salem, New Hampshire

Haverhill, MA — Local author Vin Donovan releases his fifth novel, "Secret Seeds," today through Black Rose Writing. Set in Maine and New Hampshire, the story follows Gabrielle Ruiz, an undocumented migrant farm worker trying to navigate life with her children. After landing in an abusive situation, a plan emerges to help her escape—but is her new savior what he seems? It’s a gripping tale of resilience, sacrifice, and the search for belonging.

Donovan, a Haverhill resident who grew up in Salem, is a two-time Amazon Breakthrough Novel Contest quarterfinalist. His previous novels, which explore redemption through faith and perseverance, have garnered strong reviews for their emotional depth and vivid storytelling.

"Secret Seeds" is available now in print and digital formats. An audio version will be made available shortly.
