| Plot Summary of Echoes |
"If you shout your question into the belly of the cave, it echoes the answer you are looking for. This book captures the quirks of small town life and lives of the people living it.
Maeve Binchy does not disappoint her faithful readers with another page turner. I could not put this one down."
Darcey, Resident Scholar
