    In the wake of unspeakable loss, Jason Marks finds himself spiraling into despair. After the tragic death of his daughter, Judith, and the collapse of his marriage and career, he seeks solace in the bottom of a bottle, lost in the shadows of grief. But everything changes when he meets Elena, a woman with an impossible gift—she can channel the voices of the dead. 
    Skeptical yet desperate, Jason agrees to record these supernatural conversations for his struggling podcast, Echoes. As he interviews the spirits of iconic figures like Vincent van Gogh, Robin Williams, Kurt Cobain, and Sylvia Plath, his podcast skyrockets in popularity. But with each conversation, the voices grow more intense, more demanding—and the line between healing and haunting begins to blur. 
    When Elena reveals that the spirits have turned their attention to Jason's late daughter, Judith, he must confront the devastating choice between surrendering to the seductive pull of grief or finding the courage to reconnect with the living. 
    Echoes is a heart-wrenching exploration of loss, redemption, and the perilous allure of lingering in our darkest moments. Dr. Emrani’s lyrical prose takes readers on a journey through the painful labyrinth of grief, offering not only a profound understanding of personal loss but also a hopeful reminder that even in the deepest wounds, light can grow. For anyone facing the shadows of anxiety, depression, or PTSD from life-altering loss, Echoes is a compassionate and transformative story that speaks to the resilience of the human spirit.

    Rita is an artist, still recovering from an attack by three men. Deborah is a nurse and a killer, as much at ease ending people’s lives as prolonging them. Maybe, if they hadn’t been lovers, it wouldn’t have gone beyond talk. But they are. And it does. 
    The police start finding bodies. And more bodies. Because, once you start killing people, it’s difficult to stop. New names get added to the list. All men, and all sexually interfered with. Why not? That’s what the three men did to Rita. Revenge is sweet. 
    PC Jamie Pearson and Rita were teenagers together once. Jamie wants to find Rita. Which is also the aim of reporter Bernadette Spence. Jamie wants Rita’s soul and Bernadette wants her story. And Deborah wants both of them dead.

    An engineer, Victor Hatherley, attends Dr Watson's surgery after his thumb is chopped off, and recounts his tale to Watson and Holmes. Hatherley had been hired for 50 guineas to repair a machine he was told compressed Fuller's earth into bricks. Hatherley was told to keep the job confidential, and was transported to the job in a carriage with frosted glass, to keep the location secret. He was shown the press, but on closer inspection discovered a "crust of metallic deposit" on the press, and he suspected it was not being used for compressing earth. He confronted his employer, who attacked him, and during his escape his thumb is chopped off. Holmes deduces that the press is being used to produce counterfeit coins, and works out its location. However, when they arrive, the house is on fire, and the criminals have escaped.
