Secrets of the Blue DoorPierre NicholsPierre L. NicholsThe Silver City Public Library will host a book talk and signing with Pierre L. Nichols for his recently-released memoir Secrets of the Blue Door on Tuesday, May 2, 4:30 p.m.

The book is the story of tragedy at a New Mexico ranch for boys: the death of a child brings to light the hidden sexual abuse perpetrated by a priest at the ranch. The author, who was a volunteer worker at the ranch, secretly fought against church and state to resolve the abuse, while struggling with his own faith and personal tragedies. The story culminates in lawsuits and reaches an emotional resolution 40 years later. Nichols' heart wrenching memoir speaks of courage and sends a message.
