Summary

He took her voice.

She took it back.

Don’t miss this nerve-shredding instalment in the DCI Matilda Darke Thriller series....

A censured detective with no leads.

DCI Matilda Darke and her team have been restricted under special measures after a series of calamitous scandals nearly brought down the South Yorkshire police force.

A brutal attack with no witnesses.

Now Matilda is on the trail of another murderer, an expert in avoiding detection with no obvious motive but one obvious method.

A depraved killer who leaves no traces.

When his latest victim survives the attack despite her vocal cords being severed, Matilda is more convinced than ever of the guilt of her key suspect. If only she had a way to prove it....

Silent Victim is a crime thriller with twists that will make your jaw drop – perfect for fans of Kathy Reichs and Ann Cleeves.

This was an interesting story

A new author for me and a bit different to what I usually read but interesting, I will listen to the next book in line and see what that is like

Next!

I have loved this series. Easy listening books, nice characters and relationships as the characters had developed. The usual ongoing thread is wearing thin though.

Awwww amazing again!

I’m so invested in these characters I feel like they’re part of my life now! I was devastated to loose a few characters in previous books and thankfully everyone still going by the end of this one - or are they????? Need to wait till book 11 to find out

How many times these characters say" are you alright?"

I've listened to all of DCI Dark. enjoyed most every minute except for the many,many times the characters (especially Sian) says " are you alright"?
There must be another phrase.How are you? Are You upset? etc.etc. Also the crying... people just don't cry as much as this lot. I've worked in emergency services,if you cried as much as this lot you'd be out of a job. Apart from that I loved it all. xxx
