For twenty-five years, Daunte has lived with stories of Jamaica whispered through memory, silence, and pain. His mother vowed never to return, determined to leave the past buried. But now Grammy Maude-the family's formidable matriarch-is dying, and time is running out. If he is ever to know where he truly comes from, the time is now.What begins as a journey into family history soon pulls him into a haunting Caribbean saga. There, beneath the weight of old portraits, buried graves, and generations of secrets, Daunte begins to uncover a legacy far deeper than he imagined."Walls do talk," Grammy Maude told him. "And if you listen, they will tell you everything." At Singleton Manor, the walls have been waiting a very long time to be heard.
