You can go home again-just not without meeting what time left behind.
In Echoes of Time, the follow-up to Silent Sounds, Wes Marino returns to Manhassett Beach nearly fifty years after the town raised him. The ballfields and docks have changed; the ghosts have not. Dean's accident and paralysis still cast a shadow. Frez's fearless truths-shaped by a tumultuous era-still cut clean. Walking those streets with seventy-year-old eyes, Wes finds that memory is less comfort than witness: it keeps score, asks hard questions, and leaves room for grace.
This is a novel of love and pain, of friendship tested and repaired, of growing up twice-first as a boy, then as a man finally willing to face the whole truth. In the reckonings and repairs, Wes embraces the discipline of acceptance-not surrender, but a choice to carry life as it is. In that choice, joy returns, quiet but steady, like the tide.
