In Angela Grey and Paige Peterson's murder mystery Echoes at Midnight, a serial killer had made a comeback. To terrorize those living in the state park, small towns, and rural areas, the victims were killed with an axe, and their body parts were distributed around. The killer's style resembled that of the killings from the previous year; had the suitcase killer returned, or was there a copycat? After everything they had gone through in the last year, Leah and Jake, the children of the previous serial killer's victims, were still having difficulties. Detective Bentley's way of questioning Leah and Jake was to show them the graphic crime scene pictures since he suspected them of being involved in their parents' deaths. Detective Bentley was certain that Leah and Jake were once more implicated after the resurgence of killings.

Angela Grey and Paige Peterson's Echoes at Midnight offers thrilling suspense as a serial killer wreaks devastation once more. The chapters switched between Jake, Leah, and their friend in a convoluted but captivating plot. I could not stop reading after turning the first page since there were so many twists and turns; I never knew what would come next. Leah and Jake were complex characters who were still attempting to piece their lives back together after losing their parents. Before the shocking revelation, I was certain of the killer's identity. I am still in disbelief at what transpired; it was a major shock. The story was expertly written, making it ideal for readers looking for an exciting adventure full of suspense and peril.
