Produktbeschreibung

A missing 9-year-old girl... An old man murdered when he had only days to live... An 'accident' from long ago that no one talks about. Joy Henderson's family is drowning in fear, secrets and lies. Even as a child, she's aware of her father's two sides: much-loved pillar of the community in public, diabolical monster behind closed doors. Twenty years later, when Joy returns to the family's remote farm to care for him on his deathbed, she decides it's time that everyone knows the truth... With her sister Ruth whispering dark words of revenge, Joy sets about making sure that her father pays dearly for his past. But the best laid plans never unfold quite the way you expect them to... Set in rural Australia - where the weather, the isolation, and the secrets are extreme - The Silent Listener is a book that grips you from its opening sentence to its unforgettable ending.
