James has spent his life outrunning shadows ,the bruises of an abusive childhood, the memories he buried so deep he convinced himself they were gone. But when the nightmares return, vivid and relentless, they pull him back into the home he swore he'd never remember.

As his therapist pushes him to confront the past, fragments of truth begin to surface; a father's obsessive control, a mother caught in the crossfire, and a darkness that has followed him into adulthood. The deeper James digs, the more he questions what is real... and whether the man he's becoming is any different from the one he feared most.

Set against the lingering wounds of Apartheid South Africa, Echoes in the Blood is a chilling psychological thriller about the inheritance of violence, the cost of silence, and the haunting truth that the past is never gone ... it's in our veins.
