The Final Silence by Stuart Neville

The Final Silence by Stuart Neville, 342 pages.

Unemployed and in her thirties, Rea Carlisle finds that her life is not going as well as she thought it would. She tries to hug her parents and tell them that she loves them whenever she can, but they're not comfortable with affection, or emotion of any kind. When Rea's long-lost uncle turns up dead and Rea finds evidence that he may have been a psychopath, and a bit of serial killer, things get worse as her parents get a bit colder and a bit stonier and refuse to let her take what she has found to the police. Desperate to let someone know, she confides in her ex-boyfriend DI Lennon, unaware how badly his career has been going lately, and how little he will be able to help her.

Neville always tells a good tale, and his novels vary widely. His latest is a good read for those who don't mind their crime novels a wee bit gritty.
