An unputdownable suspense thriller with an amazing twist

The Silence of Children

The Silence of Children

When Dee is dragged into her father’s mission to save a girl from her abusive carers, she’s thrust into a chilling world where predators operate behind a mask of respectability. She tries to look away, but can’t—and so becomes a target herself. Haunted by a truth almost too horrific to believe, and driven by a fierce sense of justice, she steps towards the darkness. But making an enemy of the powerful man who controls a hidden network is not only frightening, it puts her own family in danger.

"The Silence of Children is a powerful, character-driven thriller full of tension, humanity, and the fight for what's right—even when it’s terrifying."

The Back Story

I don’t recall how this series started, in all honesty. I had an idea, ran with it, and produced a book I felt had potential. I ran with that, and now have an ongoing series. Not what I envisages, actually.

Published by Bookouture as Daisy O’Shea (dual timeline fiction), self-published as Chris Lewando (thrillers) and Sue Lewando (Romance). I have a long history of determination (write-improve-write another book) and finally I have achieved a modicum of success. This has been financially liberating (not at best-seller level…). My new partner and I moved to Ireland (we both play Irish traditional music) and renovated a derelict on a shoestring. We now live our personal dream, debt-free. He has gone back to university to study paleo ecology, and I write. My small success story is derived not through excessive talent, but perseverance, and finally bumping into an editor who had faith in my work.
