NEW YORK—December 8, 2020—Morgan James’ new release, Echoes of Newtown: A Novel, by Blake Fite, is an exciting tale of historical fiction for grade school children that features thrilling adventure, making new friends, and ultimately, growing up. In the Shenandoah Valley, post-civil war, the paths of two runaway boys and a stalwart pair of young girls unexpectedly collide and, together, an unlikely orphan crew escapes harsh circumstances on a revealing journey for answers.

In Echoes of Newtown, Blake Fite depicts a world on the cusp of innovation and new technologies. The story is narrated by Billy Washita, an orphan set on discovering the secret to his past. He and his friend Rascal follow where the railroad leads, joining up with other runaway children with their own stories of abandonment and tragedy. Together, their uncertain hope for adoption means facing fears, suffering unrequited love, and discovering a future no one could have imagined.

Blake Fite’s experience as a social entrepreneur and advocate for global orphan ministry inspired him to write Echoes of Newtown, the first book of the Carriage Kids Series. Fite portrays a unique journey from bondage to freedom, fatherlessness to family. Young readers and parents alike are drawn into the action of each chapter with engaging discussion questions and real-life survival tips!
