Some doors, once opened, cannot be closed.
Dr. Eleanor Vance is a trauma therapist who has spent her career helping patients unlock suppressed memories and confront their deepest fears. When she moves into a neglected farmhouse in upstate New York, she expects peace and solitude. What she finds is something far more disturbing.
The house is full of echoes. Whispers in the walls. Shadows in the hallway. A hidden room in the basement where someone was kept prisoner. And a woman sitting in a chair, weeping in the darkness, waiting for someone to finally see her.
As Eleanor uses her memory retrieval technique to help her patients heal, she begins to realize that the echoes in her house are connected to her own buried past. A past she has been running from for years. A past that includes a husband who died with secrets and a marriage built on lies.
The house knows her secrets. The echoes are patient. And they will not let her leave until she confronts the truth about what happened to the woman in the chair.
The Echo Room is a haunting psychological thriller about grief, guilt, and the terrifying power of the memories we try to bury. For readers of Shirley Jackson and Susan Hill, this is a story that will linger long after the final page is turned.
