I absolutely love MJ Whites books and this was no exception. Was totally engrossed and couldn't put it down.

Solid 4 stars thank you for the opportunity to review

4.5 stars rounded up to 5 as I simply could not put down The Deadly Echoes .

DS Rob Minshall and Dr Cora Lael are racing against the clock to solve one of the most gruesome crime scenes that have ever encountered

The small village of Evernam is in shock when 4 bodies are discovered brutally murdered.

One survivor who ran for his life was found outside the abandoned building.

Twists and turns, secrets and no one is telling the truth.

MJ White leads the reader down a twisted path that will have you holding your breath.

This series keeps getting better and better and I cant wait to see what happens in the next book.

Thanks to NetGalley and Hera for a nail biting read.

What a gruesome return to Minshull and his team but a thrilling investigation that kept me guessing until the end. After reading this series from the beginning I loved catching up with the different members of CID and using different POVs I could see how this investigation in a close knit community affected those closest to it. I've always like Drew Ellis but now I love him more.
Because of its complexity Cora's voice wasn't introduced until later in the book but her abilities and views have matured since the first book and I love how characters grow and evolve thanks to experience good and bad.
As well as a strong premise, immersive writing that kept me gripped The Deadly Echoes didn't shy away from the pressures of policing in austerity and problems faced in rural forces. This helped keep things real.
This series is perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves and Helen Phifer.
As its part of a series, enjoyment will be intensified if you read the previous books and know the characters stories.

The Deadly Echoes by M. J. White had so many characters to keep track of that it sometimes got a bit confusing. This is the fourth case for Dr. Cora Lael, DS Rob Minshull, and the CID team from South Suffolk Police.

When a terrified, bloodied man staggers from a boarded-up shop in broad daylight in the small Suffolk village of Evernam, police are called to the scene. What they find inside the derelict building sends the community into shock: four bodies, their throats savagely cut, arranged in a bizarre formation with objects surrounding them.

Working with DS Rob Minshull and the South Suffolk CID team, Cora is plunged into a deeply twisted case with more questions than answers. And twisty the story is!

I liked getting to know these characters. This is the first book I've read in this series. It would have helped if I read the other books to know all the characters mentioned.

I would recommend this book and this author. A good, solid mystery with page-turning action.
