Industry reviews
"Much of 'The Echo' is powerful, and, after a slowish start, it becomes quite gripping. It is also much bigger and more ambitiously constructed than most crime novels, with lengthy quotations from imaginary books, reviews, articles, police memos and a psychiatric session to puzzle and inform the reader."
Times Literary Supplement - Natasha Cooper (03/07/1997)
"'The Echo' is both well plotted and has...believable characters."
Spectator - Harriet Waugh (04/05/1997)
"...another cunning psychological mystery from Minette Walters...."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (03/16/1997)
"Although Walters cleverly sprinkles her prose with faux news clippings to give the reader a chance to figure things out, nothing about the novel is predictable."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Margo Kaufman (06/22/1997)
