You may be able to sue the engineer, IF he was negligent in his inspection and report. The problem could be proving that: for example, winter weather has been unusually severe in many parts of the country (I don't know what it's been like in MS) and it's not impossible that the heavy weather has caused shifting that had not occured previously. It's also not impossible that whatever the condition was, it was imperceptible before, so that even if the engineer did everthing right, he could not spot it. It would be worth meeting with an attorney who handles cases like this, to get his opinion about the specific facts of your sitation (many attorneys provide a free initial consultation), but you should be prepared that it may not be easy to prove liablity in a case like this. Good luck.
