Echoes After Midnight

by Ajona Penhart

"This is not a confession. This is an autopsy of a soul."

Daniel Edward Matthews was once the golden boy—scholar, athlete, beloved son. But college brought more than freedom; it brought temptation. Seduced by drugs, toxic friendships, and the illusion of escape, Daniel spiraled into addiction and darkness...until one horrific night shattered everything.

Now, speaking from the other side of death, Daniel recounts the slow descent that led him to murder his own family—and the agonizing reckoning that followed.

Told in gripping, lyrical prose, Echoes After Midnight is a chilling, heartbreaking exploration of how good intentions can unravel, how love can fail to save, and how the echoes of our choices haunt us long after we're gone. Blending psychological suspense, spiritual reckoning, and raw emotion, this is not just a story of addiction and consequence—it's a plea for understanding from a voice beyond redemption.

Perfect for fans of A Little Life, The Lovely Bones, and Requiem for a Dream, this novel asks:
Can truth set you free... if it comes too late?
