The Echo Man

The murders have begun. Across England, a string of murders is taking place. Each different in method, but each horrifying and brutal. Jess Ambrose is plunged into the investigation when her house is set ablaze. With her husband dead and the police pointing at her, she runs. Her only hope is disgraced detective Nate Griffin, who is convinced Jess is innocent. Soon, Jess and Griffin discover the unthinkable: this murderer is copying the world’s most notorious serial killers. And now, imitation isn’t enough. The killer dubbed the Echo Man is ready to create his own masterpiece.

Detectives Cara Elliott and Noah Deakin are on the case of a series of seemingly unconnected murders, each different in method but shocking and brutal. As the body count increases, they can’t ignore the details that echo famous cases of the past. As Elliott and Deakin get closer to unmasking the killer, the murders are moving closer to home. Meanwhile, Jessica Ambrose is on the run, implicated as the arsonist who killed her husband and injured her daughter. With the help of disgraced detective Nate Griffin, Jess discovers a link between her case and the ultimate copycat killer.

When DCI Adam Bishop arrives at the crime scene in the dead of night, the sight of the body is bad enough—but what Adam notices next chills him to his core. More bodies surface. And the spray-painted numbers daubed above the corpses reveal the horrific truth: the killer is counting down. But to what end? Adam has no idea—until Dr. Romilly Cole knocks on his door with damning evidence pointing to a series of murders fifteen years earlier—a case she knows intimately from her past.

DCI Adam Bishop has never seen anything like it. Five murder victims – all with numbers written above. And the spray-painted daubs reveal a horrific truth: the killer is counting down. When Dr Romilly Cole learns of the murders, they trigger memories of a traumatic past she has tried hard to forget. But getting involved with the case is a bad idea. She and Bishop have history – and working together could never end well. Adam and Romilly soon realise the truth lies in a decades-old case, and only Romilly holds the key.

We’ve all experienced it. That creeping sensation of eyes on your back, the faint echo of footsteps following yours. Across the country, a madman is carefully choosing his victims. Once he has you in his sights, he won’t let go. You think you’re in control of your own life? Think again. Because The Puppet Master is coming for you, and he won’t stop until you’re dead…
