Publisher Description
She wakes up with no memory in a remote lighthouse. The man beside her says he is her husband. He says the world has ended — a lethal pandemic, billions dead, the air outside toxic. He sealed the door to keep them safe. He feeds her, cares for her, shows her wedding photographs, plays emergency radio broadcasts confirming the collapse of civilization.
Everything he tells her is a lie.
The world outside is perfectly alive. The broadcasts are recordings he fabricated. The photographs are forgeries. The medication he gives her is a sedative. He is not her husband — he is her stalker, and the lighthouse is the most elaborate prison ever built for one woman.
As fragments of her true identity surface — a city apartment, a dog named Juniper, a restraining order filed against an unknown man — she begins to piece together the horrifying truth. But she cannot let him know she knows. Trapped on an island with no phone, no boat key, and no way to contact the outside world, she must play the role of the devoted wife while secretly mapping every lock, every tool, and every structural weakness in the tower that holds her.
When a massive storm hits and the lights go out, the darkness becomes her weapon.
Echoes in the Dark is a white-knuckle psychological thriller about gaslighting, obsession, and one woman's fight to reclaim her mind from the man who tried to erase it. For readers of Freida McFadden, Lisa Jewell, and fans of captivity thrillers that keep you turning pages past midnight.
