Splinter the Silence by Val McDermidMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Another stunning read from Val McDermid. She really is unrivalled when it comes to crime fiction. The two unforgettable characters of Tony Hill and Carol Jordan are reunited in this brilliant page turner. The relief of reconciliation instilled with the whiff of police corruption and an ending that demands another instalment in this series. The psychological profiler Tony Hill, immortalised on TV by Robson Greene, comes across a series of suicides among women tormented by vicious online predators. A level of immediacy that makes him wonder if there is more to these tragedies than meets the eye. His erstwhile colleague and former DCI Carol Jordan has her own demons to confront and needs redemption from the scourge of drink. The mood between these two former close colleagues is electrifying, is their close bond to be reignited, will former colleagues rally round, will Carol regain her self esteem? Will Tony and Carol set aside their fractured relationship, begin to build bridges and begin the hunt for the most dangerous and terrifying kind of killer?
Splinter The Silence is an adrenalin rush that I could not wait to finish but did not want to end. Grab a copy and be prepared to stay up late. Brilliant!
