About this listen

When Maya Hartwell takes a break from her high-profile law career to vacation in the picturesque Landsfield Ridge, she expects relaxation, not mystery. But when she hears of a missing teenager from the area, her curiosity is piqued. As a tenacious attorney with a track record of solving complex cases, Maya can't resist the urge to dig deeper. Despite her legal prowess, Maya quickly discovers that the townsfolk are less than forthcoming about the missing teen.

As she persists in her investigation, she starts to receive threats—but Maya is no stranger to danger, having served as a marine before becoming a lawyer. Instead of scaring her off, this only hardens her resolve. With the help of Wren, the head librarian, Maya uncovers a cold case that has plagued Landsfield Ridge for years. It becomes clear that someone in town is hiding a dark secret, one that they would rather leave buried in the past. Maya is determined to get to the bottom of things, even if it means putting herself in harm's way.

In this gripping tale of small-town secrets and personal redemption, Maya must navigate a treacherous web of lies and deceit to solve the mystery of the missing teenager. Will she be able to uncover the truth before it is too late?

A binge-worthy mystery packed with suspense and revelations that will keep you listening. Echoes of the Past is the first in the new Mystery/Attorney Gabby Black series.

A great story with a strong confident main character in Maya - someone with an intriguing back-story, and who is very relatable. I love that Maya, as the main protagonist, is a woman who's an ex-marine and now an attorney, but who doesn't feel the need to behave in an aggressive way to be seen or heard. The secondary protagonist is a librarian, which is unexpected and entertaining - he's in a good position to help Maya and drive the story forward. Loved the book and looking forward to the next one in the series. Highly recommended.

Thoroughly enjoyable
