“It’s even better than what came before: more exciting, with richer characters and a stronger final-act twist. . . .  This is a murder-mystery, and a damn good one, the town of Echo Ridge steeped in an irresistible menace, the questions at the heart of the novel turning darker and deeper with each new revelation. That’s what should rightly make this another smash best-seller.” —EW
