There isn’t a speck of ambiguity in what the Navy doctors told Garvin “Echo” Tibes when he was discharged. He is slowly going deaf. After all the strife he’s had to put up with in his life, this is the capper. He’s bitter and disillusioned; the only thing giving him any comfort at all is the degree to which he’s been able to hone his other senses. Roaming the streets of the nearby small city at night without his hearing aids has added to his sharpness, which is a good thing, because so far he sucks at sign language, and reading lips is incredibly frustrating. The crew at Safety’s whom he’s come to revere, doesn’t think less of him for his progressive condition. Hell, they all have challenges of their own. But Echo continues to be hard on himself. There’s no way he’s going to become a burden to anyone. Not even the intriguing Sonny, who’s just come into his life.
Sonora “Sonny” Lashlee is a music therapist by day, a bartender by night. She’s also a lucky sweepstakes winner, which means she doesn’t have to work, but she won’t leave her jobs. They give her the personal satisfaction and social outlets she needs. Everything seems fine, if not very exciting, until one day it becomes clear someone is out to end her life. She can’t imagine why. She has no enemies; no ex-students or customers with axes to grind. She also has no close friends. So when Echo comes to her rescue with the help of a garden gnome, she embraces his protection with open arms. Of course, it would be an added bonus if Echo would welcome her with the same enthusiasm he gives his job, but something is holding him back.
