ECHOES OF THE LOST cover sits next to a magnifying glass, a torn sheet of paper containing a blurb stating "'Tense and tender, Echoes of the Lost is a lot more than a whodunit. It’s a story about found family, redemption, and the hidden corners of the city most people will never see . . . Impossible to put down'. - April Henry, New York Times bestselling author" A piece of black tape connects the quote to the red background and "Order Today" peeps out of the top right corner in a star shape

Experience Portland like never before alongside Ster McCaffrey and his unlikely group of friends. Coming to stores May 12, 2026, ECHOES OF THE LOST will warm your heart and chill your spine. Are you ready?
