The Echo Man

A copycat killer stalks the streets of Philadelphia in the fifth crime thriller in the Byrne & Balzano series from "a master storyteller" (James Ellroy).

Fall in Philadelphia. A man's corpse is found in one of the city's poorest neighborhoods. It's unmistakably the work of a killer.


But to homicide detectives Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano, it feels familiar. Eight years ago, another body was found in the same place, in the same position . . . killed in the same manner. Even the crime-scene photos are identical.


That case was never closed. And now more copycat murders are happening. Someone is recreating the city's most infamous unsolved killings, victim by victim—with more clues for Byrne and Balzano to unravel . . .


Taut and suspenseful, The Echo Man is already an international bestseller. Discover what readers around the world already know: Richard Montanari's novels are "relentlessly suspenseful" (Tess Gerritsen).
