Lost Echoes
by Joe R. Lansdale
Joe's latest is a horror novel about a young man who can hear the echoes of the past, unable to escape the evil deeds that haunt the town in which he lives.
In this superior East Texas crime thriller from Stoker-winner Lansdale (Sunset and Sawdust), Harry Wilkes discovers after a severe childhood ear infection that he has a peculiar 'hindsight.' Harry can not only see dead people but see and hear violent events as they occurred in the recent or distant past… Lansdale's down-home prose erupts with explosive twists and razor sharp insights into how 'echoes from the original sounds' can never be silenced until action is taken to defeat the fear that created them.
The prolific Lansdale returns, after sojourns in pulp, sf, and horror, to work his peculiar mojo on the supernatural crime thriller... Funny and scary, with a barn-burner ending.
