Symphony of Secrets by Brendan Slocumb
4.0

Brendan Slocumb again delivers a book centering on the music world. In SYMPHONY OF SECRETS, present-day professor Bern Hendricks is contracted to finalize a recently uncovered opera long thought to be lost. Bern has long revered the composer Frederick Delaney, but upon close inspection, he uncovers the actual creator of this and other works that have been attributed to Delaney was actually Josephine Reed, a neurodivergent black woman. The foundation is motivated to keep such a revelation from being revealed. 

Slocumb reveals the lengths people will take to preserve power, money, and reputation. Does the average individual have any chance to set things right? This was a fast listen that kept pulling me in, a welcome distraction.
