Echoes of Light
When twelve-year-old Liora Tan discovers that a strange grey stone can reveal hidden echoes from the past, her ordinary habit of collecting sounds turns into a dangerous mystery involving a forgotten chamber beneath the forest, a silent town bell, and a river threatening to overwhelm her home. With her friends Mei and Arun—and the mysterious Grace guiding them—Liora must learn to trust her instincts and understand the strange signals hidden within Bellwood’s oldest sounds. As the town faces its greatest danger, Liora discovers that courage isn’t always about being fearless; sometimes, it simply means listening carefully when everyone else has stopped paying attention.
