Echoes

by Catriona King

When a body part is found in a city centre carpark, the Belfast Murder Squad is called in. But what Marc Craig hopes will be a swift investigation grows and leads them deep into Belfast’s past.

Unrequited passion, a world war, and the city’s troubled history combine to direct them, and crimes more sordid than some team members have encountered before come to light.

When a new victim is taken, the squad is on the clock, and with the Chief Constable piling on the pressure, there’s nothing to do but take the fight to their killer, leading to more death.

The past lives forever.

[MRS JEAN SMITH · Rating 5 out of 5]

Highly recommended.

From the first book in the Craig series to this latest one, I’ve watched how the author has put flesh on the bones of the team, developing their characters and personalities. It’s like being with family and good friends. This latest crime story was dark but a compelling read. It’s fascinating to see how the whole team work together to unravel the facts and find the criminals responsible. Highly recommended.

What an ending!

Another brilliant book in the Craig series. I never tire of this series and Echoes did not disappoint. Couldn't put it down and the ending was unbeatable.
