Publisher's Summary

Only one man can stop the most dangerous conspiracy ever designed in a shattering thriller about the end of secrets from the author of The Speed of Sound.

After going on the run—for what he knows and has created—autistic Eddie Parks is back in Harmony House, the think tank that has been his sanctuary for sixteen years. With his miraculous invention, an “echo box” that excavates sounds from the past, Eddie achieved the only thing he wanted: to hear his late mother sing. But where Eddie sees good, others see infamy. Because no conversation ever held will be a secret again.

For Bob Stenson, leader of the American Heritage Foundation, whoever controls the echo box controls the future. To seize the game-changing device, he has to get Eddie where he’s most vulnerable: by kidnapping Dr. Skylar Drummond, the only person in the world Eddie trusts.

But Stenson has underestimated his prey. Eddie has the power of echoes on his side. Now he must follow them—into the most dangerous places he’s ever ventured—to save Skylar and the country.

That's the most suspicious thing I've ever seen.

Nefarious agency continues its bumbling attempts to obtain world-changing technology.

Good guys win.

Bad guys lose. Film at eleven. Happy ending with hearts and flowers.

This felt like I was binge-watching a season of "24." I could not put it down, despite the improbability of all character behaviors and technologies.

Cute story…

This is part two. Both are worth a listen for light entertainment. Not really my style but it maybe yours…I was just following the narrator.

Is everyone on the spectrum?

This is a really good story with lots of surprises. The problem is the performance. If you know the first book, then you know that Eddie has Asperger's and is on the Autism Spectrum. The problem is that Mr. Lane makes just about everyone sound the same. It's a real puzzle, and very confusing.

Love this sequel just as much as the first book!!

The treatment of the characters on the Autism spectrum are remarkable and very endearing. The other characters are also well defined. The plot twists kept me highly involved and the narrator did an admirable job making it easy to distinguish the various characters.
