The Echo Room

By Brinda L Phokeerdass

Some houses remember. Some never forget.

When Claire returns to her childhood home, she expects dust, maybe regret-not the past waiting with open arms. The house is exactly as she left it, frozen in 1998, right down to the unicorn comforter and the faint scent of lavender soap. But something's wrong. The clocks tick backwards. The mirrors flicker with faces she doesn't recognize. And a girl-her eleven-year-old self-sits in the living room, sketching spirals that never end.

Trapped in a time loop of fractured memories and ghostly echoes, Claire is forced to confront the moment that broke her family: her brother Jamie's death at the bottom of the basement stairs. As the lines blur between memory and nightmare, Claire must uncover the truth hiding in the walls-before the house, or the guilt that haunts it, swallows her whole.
