Rogues Roger — Arthur Smith
It is 1980. Nearly twenty years have passed since the creation of the echo Junior and the horrifying events that transpired in Hawthorne, Nevada. Now, the fourth in another series of brutal murders is carried out in the colorful gambling mecca of Reno. Will, the ancient echo of evil, is once again compelled to shed the skin of a well-established, though ultimately false identity, and head to Reno with Jurgen the crow in the hopes of finding the perpetrator of these grisly crimes, the killer the newspapers are calling The Mutilator. Plunging headlong into another dangerous escapade Will and his amiable crow hope to aid the echo that this killer has spawned, and if necessary, end it. However, it is in the Biggest Little City that Will unexpectedly meets a new cast of characters and faces the biggest challenges of his long life. Is this new murderer too much for even Will to handle? Does he need help from Hazel Marsch, director of the Safe Streets Initiative, who is as confounding as she is striking? Do the secrets of Will's forgotten past make a mockery of everything he believes in? Why does something feel amiss in Reno? From Roger A. Smith comes this fast-paced and shocking sequel to Echoes, the book that combined “the tension of the old noir writers with the imagination of modern fantasy” to create something “delightfully eerie.” Rogues continues the dark saga, launching readers into past eras, current dangers, and toward a pivotal discovery about the role of echoes in the evolving world.
