Widely recognized as one of the world's finest crime writers, with numerous accolades and legions of devoted readers, internationally bestselling author Val McDermid is back with an adrenaline-fueled roller coaster of a novel guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat. Is it violence if it's virtual? The outspoken women targeted by the increasingly cruel Internet trolls and bullies would say so. For some of them, the torrents of bile and vicious threats prove too much. They begin to silence themselves in a series of high-profile suicides. Or do they? Tony Hill isn't convinced. But he's the only one. After departing from the force in a storm of grief, Carol Jordan is too busy messing up her life to care. Until she gets an unexpected second chance. Now it's game on, and the stakes have never been higher. Unpredictable and riveting, Splinter the Silence is a timely and disturbing look at the way the anonymity of the Internet enables abuse--and a story of two of crime's most formidable enemies, confronting not just a killer but demons of their own. This top-notch, compulsive tale is sure to satisfy long-time fans as well as new readers, and cements Val McDermid's place as one of the best crime writers in the business.
