The pairing of Bishop and Fuller is a magical one. . . .

BLIND WALLS is a masterful and eerie tale of obsession, increasing madness, and deepening sadness, surrounding the haphazard construction of a haunted house. It’s a fine and engaging read, a page turner that will not allow readers to put it down without finishing to the very end.

This story, told by a blind man, offers clear, sharp insight into the lives of the people who lived in the mansion and whose spirits ensure that it remains vital in the reality of today. … A vivid quilt, the pattern of which mirrors the happiness, sadness, loss, and madness of these people. … These characters are so well developed that one has to think of them as live people – laughing with them and crying with them, even getting old with them. This is an amazing story based on the Winchester Mansion and told with such quiet, compelling, raw humanity that the reader simply can’t stop until the entire tale is told. A wonderful, spooky look into others’ lives and what may or may not happen on any given day.

Bishop and Fuller have constructed a story rich with imagined detail and visionary ideas about life’s possibilities. The cast of ghostly characters, servants, workman, and family light up the story with dramatic effect as their actions and choices are observed. . . . The authors’ prose is effortless and moves easily from humorous to weighted seriousness. The dialogue is perceptive, giving voice to compelling characters and particularly to the tour guide whose second sight he confers on the readers. The latter will not want to look away from the myriad rooms of Weatherlee House.

I got so caught up in these characters’ lives, loves, and heartbreaks. … I loved the insights into the inner workings of obsession, not only on the part of Mrs. Weatherlee, but also on the people she comes in contact with, and how this obsession affects everyone it touches.
—Long & Short Reviews

Innocent, likable characters who are drawn by the hands of experts. Every character in this novel is unique, and we are made to see each of their points of view. … . I recommend this story for people who love memorable characters and settings and stories told without holding back the punches.
