Description
Earthquakes, poisonous gas, lava flows—Donovan Nash flies headlong into a volcanic nightmare
The flames of Donovan Nash's worst nightmare are fanned to life when Stephanie VanGelder, one of those closest to him, is kidnapped in the volcanic powder keg of a lawless Guatemala. With help from his inner circle that includes his estranged wife, Dr. Lauren McKenna, Donovan races headlong into the world of corruption and deception. Battling the kidnappers, as well as the deadly gas and lava from the impending eruption of a volcano, Donovan only has one chance to save Stephanie. Amid earthquakes, volcanic ash, and lava from the eruption, the rescue goes horribly wrong, and Donovan is forced to find a way for everyone, including a mysterious woman who holds the secrets to his past, to escape one of the most powerful forces on earth. Aftershock is the story of Donovan Nash, a man battling his torturous past, while struggling to survive the volcano along with those who matter most to him. In the face of impending death, Donovan must garner the courage to endure a shocking revelation he's sought for decades—a truth that will change him forever.
Advance Praise
Praise For the Donovan Nash Thrillers
“Donlay’s third novel (Zero Separation) rivets the reader from the first page and doesn’t let up until the shocking end…Fans of political thrillers and military fiction, especially those dealing with the aerospace industry, will devour this one. Without a doubt, Donlay’s best to date.”
— Booklist
"Donlay demonstrates a fine grasp of action-thriller boilerplate in his fourth (Deadly Echoes) Donovan Nash thriller...Donlay rises above genre cliché."
—Publishers Weekly
“Deadly Echoes by Philip Donlay (Oceanview Publishing, 2014), the fourth novel to feature Donovan Nash, offers me a chance to use a word I can’t remember ever using in a review before. Yes, this is a. . . wait for it. . . a ripsnorting adventure…Think science possible if you close one eye and squint through the other. Then it all becomes perfectly possible and entirely plausible…Did I mention all the shooting and fighting? There’s a high body count by the time we’re finished…non-stop action…if you do decide to come on this ride, be prepared for not just a hail of bullets — there’s a positive blizzard blowing through the book…Deadly Echoes certainly exceeds the average wow factor in terms of thriller plot…If you are sufficiently tuned in and are rooting for these people, this will certainly hold your attention as the pages flash by in full page-turner mode.”
—Sacramento/San Francisco Book Review
“The novel (Deadly Echoes) boasts both male and female characters who are strong and realistic (that isn’t always the case in action-oriented thrillers). Fans of Donlay’s too-little-known Donavan Nash series will devour this one, and it may be the book that extends the author’s reach.”
—Booklist
"A heart-thumping ride that steams along, bringing our flawed world into pristine focus. Lots of mischief and mayhem, the characters fraught with danger, the plot hitting all the right notes. Definitely check this one out."
– Steve Berry, New York Times best-selling author of The King’s Deception

From the first word to the last page this book is a rollercoaster ride. Kidnapping, murder, greed and oil tycoons deceit , this book has it all.. Well developed characters and a plot that could be real today. A 25 year old murder is solved and a man's grief finally comes to an end. I liked the volcano that added to the danger and really increased the suspense. I am definitely getting the other books by Philip Donlay.
thank you NetGalley for the chance to review this book.
Mallory Anne-Marie H, Reviewer
Reading any Donovan Nash must be the equivalent of hanging by a rope from a helicopter in flight. Nash never stops analyzing, moving, remembering his hidden past. Calling is thriller "non-stop" is not infrequent, but.with every novel by Philip Donlay in the Donovan Nash series, "non-Stop" is an exact and accurate description. In this fifth installment, a photographer who is an essential friend is kidnapped from a seething Guatemalan volcano, triggering flashbacks from the events of twenty-five years earlier that killed his fiancee. You are likely to hold your breath throughout.
