A Novel
by Boo Walker
A woman delves into a centuries-old murder to find the truth behind her self-destructive behavior in a powerful novel about love, loss, and healing by the bestselling author of An Unfinished Story and The Stars Don't Lie.
Unable to catch a break in life or love as she approaches thirty, Charli Thurman sees red lights at every crossroads. And given the Thurman family's tumultuous history, she knows things will only get worse, unless she can break the cycle and figure out where―and when―it all went wrong.
Charli is skeptical when her best friend introduces her to a "soul reader" who specializes in generational trauma. But during family constellation therapy with the guru, Charli experiences an inexplicable memory of terrible violence. Whatever happened in the past, it created an imbalance that's still in the Thurman blood.
When Charli's research leads her to Winchester, England, she meets a charming pub owner named Noah, whose own family history is similarly twisted. As the mystery deepens around a damaged inheritance and a tragic death, Charli is resolved to find the truth―and create the fresh start she has been hoping for her whole life.
"In this beautifully written story of an old crime, a secret has shaped a family for generations until one woman goes in search of the truth that will allow her to reconcile the inherited traumas in her life. Celebrated author Boo Walker deftly explores the curious power of genetic memory in a modern American family…An Echo in Time vibrates at the sweetest frequency and pulls gently at just the right heartstrings." ―Kimberly Brock, bestselling author of The Lost Book of Eleanor Dare
"An Echo in Time is a beautifully written, emotionally powerful story of a young woman's journey to break the cycle of generational trauma…I found myself cheering for Charli at every turn and smiling at the deeply satisfying and nuanced ending." ―Yvette Manessis Corporon, international bestselling author of When the Cypress Whispers
"An Echo in Time is a captivating novel about the generational legacy of secrets and shame and one woman's journey to love herself by righting the wrongs of the past. Walker has crafted a beautiful and moving tale of loss and healing that is part love story, part mystery, and all green lights." ―Melissa Payne, bestselling author of A Light in the Forest
