fascinating character study

She loves her spouse Ben and enjoys working at his family's lodge. In fact the only thing missing in Sage Galloway's life is a baby. Her talk with Ben proves futile as he puts her off; insisting they will talk after he returns from a hunting safari of wild buffalo in Tanzania. However, Ben dies devastating Sage. Ben's twin Logan offers the widow some comfort by telling her stories about his ancestors in 1897. She does likewise. Soon the widow and her brother-in-law begin to fall in love just like twin brothers William and Robert did in 1897 Canada to the same woman Jenny, William's pregnant wife. ECHOES is a fascinating character study that compares two generations over a century apart in which male twins falling love with the same woman.

Though the historical segment is the deeper tale as Sage seems somewhat shallow especially next to Jenny, readers who enjoy a comparative family saga will appreciate Bobby Hutchinson's fine drama.
