The Echo Man by Sam Holland

5.0

Definitely some triggers - very dark, very well done plot, developed characters. Very dark.
Jess suffers from a medical condition - no recognition of pain. She cuts herself to watch her blood drip - counting on her longtime friend, now a prominent doctor at a local hospital, to provide stiches and care.
Jess wakes in the night to the sound of fire - grabbing her young daughter, they survive. But not her husband. Patrick is dead - and Jess is the primary suspect.
Cara and Noah are assigned to the case, as well as several other investigations; they seem unrelated until a major connection is revealed - someone is recreating famous serial killer's MO.
Jess escapes the hospital, working with Cara's brother Griffin to clear her name. Griffin has been recovering from his own personal tragedy - massive harm to his own body while listening to his wife being raped and murdered.
The murders continue; the leads are few; everyone is at risk.
Brutally written - excellent twists at the end that will keep you up at night, afraid of the dark.
