Resumen del Editor

This "cunningly plotted" (New York Times) thriller is coming to Britbox this October!

Bestselling, award-winning author Val McDermid delivers her most stunning story yet in The Distant Echo—an intricate, thought-provoking tale of murder and revenge.

Four in the morning, mid-December, and snow blankets St. Andrews School. Student Alex Gilbery and his three best friends are staggering home from a party when they stumble upon the body of a young woman. Rosie Duff has been raped, stabbed and left for dead in the ancient Pictish cemetery. The only suspects are the four young students stained with her blood.

Twenty-five years later, police mount a cold case review. Among the unsolved murders they're examining is that of Rosie Duff. But someone else has his own idea of justice. One of the original quartet dies in a suspicious house fire and soon after, a second is killed. Alex fears the worst. Someone is taking revenge for Rosie Duff. And it might just save his life if he can uncover who really killed Rosie all those years ago.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Cunningly plotted...McDermid administers the venom drop by drop...Individually the characters are sensitively drawn. Collectively, they present the inscrutable face of closed-off communities so terrified of change they would kill for peace.”—New York Times Book Review

“This absorbing psychological novel of revenge shows British author McDermid at the top of her form...outstanding pacing, character and plot development, plus evocative place descriptions, make this another winner.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“If you still haven't absorbed the fact that Val McDermid is writing at the top of anyone's game, here's another chance to join the celebration...her clean, crisp writing, especially about crime science, might just remind you of the early books of P.D. James.”—Chicago Tribune

Karen Pirie is a minor character in this twisty tale

Fascinating story of how friends change, friendships evolve, and trauma impacts everyone. But not too psychologically convoluted: a gripping good tale!

Great story!

VMcD is so good—really spins a tale! Sorry not to learn more about Karen, but it makes me want the next one!

Finally unabridged

Up until recently this has not been available in the US unabridged. Although this is the book Karen gets introduced and is classed as book 1, Karen is barely in it.

Narration

The Scottish accent ruins the narration. Half the book is unintelligible and gave me a headache.

Beware, scam!!

This is not a “new” release as Audible claimed when they sent me a notice. This is a re-release of the first in McDermid’s Karen Pirie series to coincide with the release of the new Karen Pirie tv series. Would it really have been so hard to let readers know this?? I’ll be returning it.
