About this ebook
San Diego Writer's Festival Mystery Writer of the Year for 2021
Winner of the Shamus Award and nominated for Macavity, Barry, and Lefty Awards
A friend arrested for murder. A vicious killer lurking in the shadows. A world of darkness.
Blinded by a gunshot wound to the face while working as a private investigator nine months ago, Rick Cahill is now sure of only one thing: he has to start a new life and leave his old one behind.
He's still trying to figure out what that life is when his onetime partner, Moira MacFarlane, asks for his help on a case she's taken for Rick's former best friend. The case is simple and Moira only needs Rick for one interview, but Rick is wary of waking sleeping demons.
Ultimately, he goes against his gut and takes the case which quickly turns deadly. Rick's old compulsion of finding the truth no matter the cost—the same compulsion that cost him his eyesight and almost his life—battles against his desire to escape his past.
The stakes are raised when Rick's friend is implicated in murder and needs his help. Can he help the friend he no longer trusts while questioning his own lessened capabilities? His life depends on the answer as a shadowy killer lurks in the darkness.
Perfect for fans of Michael Connelly and John Sandford
While all of the novels in the Rick Cahill PI Crime Series stand on their own and can be read in any order, the publication sequence is:
Yesterday's Echo
Night Tremors
Dark Fissures
Blood Truth

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was the first book I ever read by Matt Coyle and it will definitely not be the last. I recommend reading some of the other books in the series to learn more about all of the things that happen to Rick Cahill but I enjoyed the story even though I had not read any others. Rick starts this book with a huge handicap that makes it hard for him to help his friends. There are a lot of twists and turns so it is not easy to know who really is the murderer. I really like that. I received a copy of this book from Netgalley for a fair and honest opinion that I gave of my own free will.
