Echo Moon

A past life, a past war, and a past love. Peter St John can’t foresee a future until he confronts his past sins.

When photojournalist Peter St John returns home after a two-year absence, the life he’s been running from catches up. For years his mother’s presence, coupled with Pete’s own psychic gift, has triggered visits to 1917. There, he relives battles of the Great War, captures the heyday of Coney Island on canvas, and falls in love with an enchanting and enigmatic songstress named Esme. Present-day Pete still pines for Esme, and his love endures…but so does his vivid memory of killing her.

When he discovers family heirlooms that serve as proof of his crimes, Pete will have to finally confront his former life. He also meets a young woman—who is more than what she seems—with a curious connection to his family. As century-old secrets unravel, can Pete reconcile a murder from his past before it destroys his future?

“Enthralling and imaginative, where the past intertwines with the present, Spinella masterfully delivers in the third and final installment of her Ghost Gifts trilogy. Echo Moon is filled with suspense, mystery, and romance, and kept me turning the pages and on my toes until the very end, an ending I didn’t see coming. I love unexpected twists! Fans, new and old, as Echo Moon can easily stand on its own, will devour Peter St John’s story. I sure did.” —Kerry Lonsdale, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Everything We Keep

“Laura Spinella has written a spellbinding tale of mystery, mysticism, and the ache of the human heart. I was immediately drawn into the world of Pete and Esme as he is haunted by a single memory that has ruled his life—a terrible act he committed a hundred years ago. Spinella weaves a compelling tale that takes the reader back and forth in time as Pete discovers the truth about who he is, what he’s done, and how he can rebuild the life he lives today. A winner that is sure to be a hit among readers across many genres.” —Camille Di Maio, HOLT Medallion finalist and author of The Way of Beauty

“A powerful love story in its own right, Echo Moon offers a stunning and deeply satisfying conclusion to the Ghost Gifts trilogy. Every thread in the series effortlessly weaves together; every question you didn’t realize needed asking, is answered. As Pete St John, now an acclaimed war photojournalist, runs from both his lives—in 1917 and the present—Laura Spinella, who creates gloriously complex, tortured heroes, also proves herself to be a master of historical fiction. My advice? Cancel your weekend plans and read Ghost Gifts, Foretold, and Echo Moon back-to-back.” —Barbara Claypole White, bestselling author of The Perfect Son and The Promise Between Us

“I highly recommend Echo Moon for readers of historical, contemporary, and paranormal romance. Spinella is a masterful writer who weaves all these elements together into a story full of plot twists and memorable characters.” —Debbie Herbert, author of Charmed and Dangerous
