With the emotional intensity you loved from the first book cranked even higher, prepare for twists that'll make your heart race and connections that'll make you ache. If you thought you understood this trilogy's mysteries, think again—What Echoes in the Dark is ready to prove you wonderfully, devastatingly wrong.
