- 505 0_ |a When a homeless man known as Billy Blake dies of malnutrition in the garage of an expensive home in London, police are unable to discover anything about the man's true identity. Several months later journalist Michael Deacon is sent by his editor to interview the wealthy widow in whose garage Billy chose to die. As Deacon digs deeper, he finds echoes of both his own life and the widow's life in the story of Billy Blake. Like Walters's earlier novels, The Echo illustrates that appearances can be deceiving if people are unwilling to look below the surface.
