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.

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.

I enjoyed the narration, It was easy to follow and the dual times and point of views were very easy to distinguish. The concept behind the story is interesting, that the past can affect the people of today. Of course this centers around a tragedy and that colors how the generations after go through life. Charlie needed to find out the story in order for her mind to let it go and help her family move on towards the future. She also had to let go of her own personal demons to see the future she could have.

A way out of the past

This book, though didn’t give me enough of an ending (iykyk), was definitely worth taking the time to read. It follows the story of a woman who has been made to feel unlovable. She follows a guru’s advice and learns a story of her past and through her journey learns to leave her guilt exactly where it belonged all along, in the past.

Heartfelt read.
