An old house awakens long-forgotten dreams and the wheels of change are set in motion. Can a modern family truly walk away from their materialist selves? Can a nearly condemned, pre-Civil War farmhouse be turned into a source of pride? No one else could see their dream. Friends and family saw only their imminent demise. Raccoons in a bedroom, bats in the attic, bones in the basement, a horrific ninety-day time frame. None of these were part of the plan. It turns into a harrowing, hilarious roller coaster of a ride. As the house endures monumental changes, the family must evolve as well. In slowing down, and appreciating their surroundings, they learn to wear lifes bruises proudly. Can a person still curl up with a book and make the world go away? Can readers laugh at someone elses failings, and determine that perhaps they can take a chance on change? Echoes in the Walls dares readers to do just that.
