'Kaufman is a fantastic writer with a distinctive poetic touch... It will be the rare reader who will not be moved by this soulful, poignant novel.' -Kirkus Reviews'It’s a powerfully rendered novel that holds the rare ability to traverse genres to attract a wider audience of reader than the ’historical fiction’ label portends.' -Midwest Book ReviewIn 1897, dying professor August Simms arrives in Rhome, Texas, drawn by newspaper reports of mysterious airships soaring across the state. Seeking one final adventure before cancer claims him, he returns to the boarding house where his wife died fifteen years earlier-the same night an innocent black man was lynched for a crime he didn’t commit.As August investigates the airship sightings, he discovers that the echoes of that long-ago injustice still reverberate through the small town. When the boarding house proprietor Nadine Martin and her friend Abigail Williams face a new kind of mob violence, August must choose between the safety of his remaining days and standing up for what’s right.Set against the backdrop of one of America’s first documented UFO flaps, A Persistent Echo weaves together mystery, history, and the enduring power of human courage in the face of hatred.
