Descriere
'A riveting mystery, beautifully unwound. The Silence excavates dark, decades-old secrets buried in human hearts, in families and in nations. I read it in one weekend' ERIN KELLY
Recenzii
“Emotionally spry, smartly suspenseful, Allott’s arresting debut novel vibrates with Hitchcockian atmosphere." — Booklist (starred review)
"The Silence is told in alternating sections that move back and forth in time between 1997 and thirty years earlier, building tension to the snapping point. Old misunderstandings are resolved for the reader, and then replaced by new ones... Emotionally wrenching." — Wall Street Journal
"Susan Allott conjures a steamy, slow-burning atmosphere of foreboding that never lets up." — Air Mail
"Susan Allott's The Silence is a rare, expertly crafted first novel. Nothing is as it seems in a dark past where secrets are meant to stay buried forever—nor in an unsettling present where they have not—and debut author Allott juggles a wonderfully complex plot and dual timelines like a seasoned pro." — New York Times bestselling author Wendy Corsi Staub
"Intricate and suspenseful...This stellar debut brings a fresh voice to crime fiction for readers who love a good story told with lilting prose about complex characters." — New York Journal of Books
"A brooding, suspenseful debut." — Sunday Mirror
"Moves smoothly between the past and present.... a well-written debut novel that saves an unexpected surprise for last." — Mystery Scene
"Allott uses the scandal of Australia’s stolen children to devastating effect in this memorable debut." — Sunday Times (London)
"A suspenseful, beautifully crafted debut for fans of Celeste Ng and Jane Harper." — Telegraph Australia
"An atmospheric, convincing portrayal of the way that the decisions we make, both individually and collectively, reverberate down the years." — The Guardian

Notă biografică
Susan Allott is from the UK but spent part of her twenties in Australia, desperately homesick but trying to make Sydney her home. She completed the Faber Academy course in 2017, during which she started writing this novel. She now lives in south London with her two children and her very Australian husband.
