Echoes on the Pond

di Bill Gauthier (Autore)

Crossroad Press, 2023

When thirteen-year-old Missy Walters goes to child counselor Cheryl Turcotte under court order, their combined troubled pasts raise a deadly ghost from her watery grave. The ghost wishes to return to life by possessing Missy. Now Missy and Cheryl must face their pasts and fix their present in order to stop the ghost from making Missy disappear forever. Missy is new to the Boston neighborhood of Jamaica Plain. She got in trouble, again, and now lives with her father, Blake, after the court granted him custody. Part of Missy's continued freedom hinges on her undergoing counseling to deal with dark secrets from her past. Her new counselor, Cheryl, also has dark secrets from her past. She and her younger sister, Kristen, were terribly abused by their mother, who Cheryl killed in self-defense when she was seventeen. When the ghost of a teenage girl begins haunting them, their lives descend into a hell of self-doubt, fear, and violence. In order to defeat the evil spirit, Missy and Cheryl must find out who the girl is, why she haunts them, and how to move beyond their own tragic pasts to save themselves and their loved ones. Equal parts ghost story, coming-of-age tale, and story of relationships, Echoes on the Pond is a supernatural suspense/horror novel about love, secrets, and fear. It's a story about people from different places in their lives with similar pasts, and how those pasts weigh them down, but how they can gather strength to move forward again.
