Haunted by silence, a mute teenage girl is mysteriously given back her voice...and it is divine. "Lyrical and enchanting, SILENT ECHO will resonate in your heart long after you turn the last page. I can’t wait for the sequel!” —Lorie Langdon, author of the DOON series. Rendered mute at birth, Portia Griffin has been silent for 16 years. Music is her constant companion, along with Felix, her deaf best friend who couldn’t care less whether or not she can speak. If only he were as nonchalant about her newfound interest in the musically gifted Max Hunter. But Portia’s silence is about to be broken with the abrupt discovery of her voice, unparalleled in its purity and the power it affords to control those around her. Able to persuade, seduce and destroy using only her voice, Portia embarks on a search for answers about who she really is, and what she is destined to do. Inspired by Homer’s ODYSSEY, SILENT ECHO is an epic story filled with fantasy, romance and original music. "SILENT ECHO is a gripping, original read, with a heroine you won't forget. Katniss Everdeen -- watch out for Portia Griffin." —Erica Wagner, author of SEIZURE
The horrific rape of a doctor in Kolkata has shocked the nation, reminding us all of the urgent need for change. In this special edition of Breakthrough in Silence, we confront the brutal realities of sexual violence, using this tragic case as a powerful call to action. Our mission is to foster understanding, to dig deep into the societal roots of such crimes, and to empower our readers with the knowledge to combat and prevent harassment. This edition goes beyond the headlines, exploring the psychological and social impact of sexual harassment and violence. We offer insights into how communities can rally together to support survivors, hold perpetrators accountable, and, most importantly, educate future generations to prevent such atrocities. Through in-depth analysis, survivor stories, and expert perspectives, *Breakthrough in Silence: Edition 1.1* seeks to illuminate the path from outrage to understanding. We aim to turn this moment of collective grief into a catalyst for change, encouraging our readers to not just comprehend the depth of the issue, but to become active participants in creating a safer, more just society. Let’s move beyond silence and ignorance—let’s learn, understand, and act.
West End is a sleepy town along Lake Erie. And on its outskirts is a tiny drive called Backlot Road where, on weekends, Tenner and Jenny Savings escape a busy Pittsburgh. At a tiny cabin called In September they share the most rewarding marriage. For thirteen years they are happy and loyal, devoted partners in a perfect relationship. They are teachers and best friends, laughter and eternal lovers. Blessed. Their lives are soon to change, though. Jenny receives word that Phillip Bentley, a personal friend from West End, dies in a car crash. And while attending the funeral together, Tenner Savings escapes Jenny’s side for some fresh air. While outside the funeral home his world abruptly changes. His interest is consumed by a vision on the lake. Is it a ghost or angel? Is he losing his mind? Tenner’s unsure of the incident and keeps it to himself, hiding it from Jenny, claiming the event too questionable to mention. There are more uncertain events that transpire within the next few months, though. An angel-like vision continues to appear on Backlot Road at the cabin, and eventually follows Tenner to Pittsburgh. The apparition won’t go away and begins to speak to Tenner Savings, sharing significant prophecies. His future is at risk. Life will never be the same again. The apparition confirms that his perfect marriage and world will crumble around him. And Jenny, Tenner’s heart and soul, will have to be saved, because her future will forever change…In September.

These days, I find myself staring at a blank page. No words flow from my mind anymore. Nothing of worth seems to flow from my mind anymore.My words have been taken from me by a horde of little white pills. A trade-off it seems. Insanity for stability, passion for apathy.And the world travels on...Michael Spence Dobson, 2012
