The Last Echo by Kimberly Derting
5.0
The Last Echo picks up two months after Desires of the Dead, Violet is working with Sara and Rafe, helping them find bodies as part of a small team while still attending school.
As I reach the third book in the series it starts to hit home how difficult it must be for Violet just to live everyday, seeing the imprints left behind on other people, even if its just an accidental road kill, it can't be easy and it really show how tough she is.
We are also introduced to more new faces, members of the same team as Violet who also have their own abilities. Sam has the ability of Psychometry, Rafe has the ability of Precognition, Krystal is a Medium, and Gemma is an Empath.
As The Last Echo progress we learn more about this small group and why they act the way they do and what background they come from. Each story was interesting and each individual comes from different backgrounds. Violet has a few close calls in The Last Echo, and each time I thought 'this is it, it all ends now' but then it turns out to be something different and once again I am on edge waiting for it to all fall down. One thing that I am really liking is how Violet is finding clues by good old investigative skills and not her body finding gift. Finding all the little pieces and trying to connect all the dots requires a lot of work but Violet isn't one to quit and carries on not matter what happens.
One person who I have come to dislike is Dr Lee, and I have suspicions that my feelings will not improve in the next book.
The ending of The Last Echo had me feeling very nervous, knowing that there was another book after this made me feel better with Violets chances of survival, but still had me wondering how she would survive. So far this has to be my favourite book out of them all, but it also points out how much I would not like to have her ability.
