This book was not on my radar until a couple reviews on IG stated how addicting this thriller was. Were they right? Yup this book lived up to the hype. For a debut I am stunned and nervous for the author as she pens her next book, these are mighty fine steps to follow in.
Taking place in England The Echo Man starts off with a bang and doesn't let go till the end. Jess plays centre stage as does a couple other POVs giving this physiological thriller a well rounded view. The Echo Man has a flawed cast, twist and turns along with a nice fast pace. It is dark, bloody and based on true crime. I will say this isn't for the faint of heart, it is graphic in content and description with a whodunit part that doesn't let go. The ending wraps up quickly with an explosive conclusion, which for me was good as this old brain can only take so much brutality.
I read it in a couple days, both reading and listening to the audiobook. Both methods I recommend.
My copy was obtained from my local library and the audiobook via Scribd.
