Echoes of Fear:

The True Horror of the Atlanta Child Murders

By Dr. Marcus X. Ellington

A chilling true crime investigation that will leave you breathless.

Between 1979 and 1981, Atlanta became a city under siege. Dozens of Black children, teenagers, and young adults vanished—many found murdered, their cases left unsolved. Fear spread like wildfire, and the community demanded justice. But when Wayne Williams was arrested and convicted, the questions didn’t end… they only deepened.

In Echoes of Fear, Dr. Marcus X. Ellington takes listeners on a gripping, edge-of-your-seat journey through the terror, the investigation, and the lingering doubts that still haunt this case. Was Wayne Williams truly the killer, or was he a convenient scapegoat? Did the authorities ignore critical evidence? And why do so many questions remain unanswered decades later?

•An intense, haunting exploration of the Atlanta Child Murders.

•A deep dive into the fear, the failures, and the fight for justice.

•Unveiling the lingering mysteries that refuse to stay buried.

Told with unflinching honesty and riveting detail, this audiobook brings the horrors of the past to life—revealing a tragedy that demands to be remembered. For fans of true crime, investigative journalism, and shocking real-life mysteries, this is an unforgettable listen.
