A gripping standalone thriller with an evocative setting
-
Fear the Silence is a gripping standalone thriller from the author of the well-loved Erika Foster and Kate Marshall series.
London trauma doctor Maggie Kendall's life is turned on its head when her husband Will dies suddenly and violently, and to make a horrible situation even worse, it quickly becomes clear that police regard his death as a suicide. Left reeling, Maggie retreats to the holiday home she and Will shared on the (fictional) Croatian island of Tišina. That's when things start getting creepy... Maggie receives a mysterious letter from beyond the grave from Will, indicating that there's more to his recent death than authorities realise. A couple of inexplicable but life-threatening incidents occur before Will's best friend turns up on his yacht. As the island is cut off by a storm, Maggie's caught up in a spine-chilling struggle to solve the mystery of Will's death, while not falling victim to the same malevolent force herself.
The tightly-plotted story contains a well-balanced combination of suspense, shocking twists and political intrigue, which kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. Robert Bryndza captures the main character’s emotional torment, fear and determination phenomenally well, resulting in a thriller that will have a visceral effect on readers. The setting on an island off the Dalmatian coast of Croatia is inspired by the author's own experience of holidaying in Baška on the island of Krk and elsewhere in Croatia. He evocatively relates the dramatic scenery, isolation and wild weather of the Adriatic in winter.
I'd highly recommend Fear the Silence to existing fans of Robert Bryndza's crime fiction, but also as a perfect starting point for those who are yet to delve into his work, given that it's a standalone.
My thanks to the author, Robert Bryndza, publisher Raven Street Publishing, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this exciting title.
