Echo

It’s February in Chicago when Detective Harriet Foster is called to Hardwicke House, a mansion and legendary party house that’s home to Belverton College’s exclusive Minotaur Society. The body of Brice Collier, son of the house’s billionaire owner, has been found in a field nearby. An autopsy shows Brice died when alcohol was forced down his throat, perhaps not a surprising death at a college party house. What is a surprise is the connection to a hazing death that occurred at Hardwicke House 30 years earlier. Foster and her partner, Detective Vera Li, suspect that Brice’s uncooperative father was involved in the earlier case. Then two more deaths occur that appear to be suicides. While Foster investigates, she’s taunted by a voice on the phone. She suspects that voice is connected to the death of her earlier partner, which was ruled a suicide, although Foster has never accepted it. She soon feels that she’s wearing herself down investigating two cases with echoes from the past.
