Hello, Fellow Book Worms and Book Dragons,
Freedom. Individuality. Two key elements that all humans strive to keep. But what happens when a shadow organization decides that it should control the masses?
The Silent Corner is written by horror/ suspense author, Dean Koontz. It is published by Bantam Books, an imprint of Penguin Random House. In it, we are introduced to FBI Agent Jane Hawk, who is dealing with the apparent suicide of her husband, Nick. After investigating his death and a growing suicide epidemic, Jane is contacted by shadowy figures who threaten her life, as well as her son, Travis. Afraid of her five-year-old's safety, Jane goes off the grid and travels cross country to friends on the West Coast.
With a secret organization driving people to kill themselves and others, Jane sets out to find the truth behind them. But she finds a conspiracy so deep within the government and law enforcement that she no longer trusts her FBI brothers and sisters to watch her back. Soon she is branded a rogue agent and is pursued by an unlikely assassin.
Jane Hawk is an agent who is bold and takes risks to save her loved ones. Her clever use of her surroundings to keep herself alive was extraordinary to behold. Just when I thought that she was about to meet her end, I saw that she was several steps ahead of her enemies. The book moved forward with the speed of a bullet train. And ended with a tension-filled finale that wrapped up the storyline, and added nuggets of what is to come in the remaining novels of the series.
I read this novel in part with the returning voice of Elisabeth Rodgers. Her use of accents, elevated reading, and dramatic presentation gave this book a new dimension. I marveled at how fast the book sped by with her narration. I am happy that she is the narrator for the rest of the series. Excellent work!
In the end, the Silent Corner was a four-star read for me. If you love an exhilarating novel that leaves you hungry for more of the main character, then this is the perfect gift to yourself! Enjoy.
Because there is always time to read,
