Midsomer Murders this isn't.... The Silence Game is a gritty British crime novel from the real London, where violence and corruption starts at the top and seeps into every corner of life.
The Chandler -esque noir plot never misses a beat on a twisting path of murder and blackmail leading to an unpredictable ending you honestly thought you knew all along....
Long ago when they were youngsters, underworld detective and fixer Danny Massey knew Susan.
Now she is the wife of Brexiteer MP Stephen Booth and lives in seclusion on a remote farm in Cornwall.
A chance meeting with investigative journalist Phillipa Phapetis, who Stephen Booth must destroy before she exposes his corrupt dealings, draws Danny into Booth's web of Europe-wide corruption and blackmail.
When Phillipa's source is found tortured and murdered, it looks like Phapetis is next.
Danny gets her to meet in Paris with veteran French journalist Jaques-Victor Billaud, who has been investigating Booth's links to shadowy European crime boss Walter Samsel.
Tracked by the violently vengeful Detective Inspector Trevor Halland and hunted by Walter Samsel's killers, Danny must single-handedly protect Phillipa and Jaques-Victor as they finally unravel the source of Booth's power.
