Yesterday's Echo by Matt Coyle

4.0

I had the pleasure of reporting on a local event the author spoke at a while back (https://www.crescentavalleyweekly.com/between-friends/01/31/2019/inspiring-stories-shared-lcwc-luncheon/) then recognized his name on a list of southern California writers (my genre niche) and realized I'd not read his books.

Descriptive and poetic as the sound of Torrey Pines in the background, the writing is quite good. I love a flawed hero and this intro to Rick Cahill makes him out about as flawed -- and foolish -- and one dog-loving man can be. The story is tight and this read gave me that feeling in the pit of my stomach I want at the end of a tense book.

I'll be reading the next.
