Synopsis

Sarah Hilary, winner of the Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year, returns with a new DI Marnie Rome novel, QUIETER THAN KILLING. For fans of Val McDermid, Alex Marwood and Claire Mackintosh

'Hilary is my drop-everything writer; always original, always bang-on psychologically, always gripping. I am a huge fan' Alex Marwood

'Tremendous' Ian Rankin

It's winter, the nights are dark and freezing, and a series of seemingly random assaults is pulling DI Marnie Rome and DS Noah Jake out onto streets of London. When Marnie's family home is ransacked, there are signs that the burglary can have only been committed by someone who knows her. Then a child goes missing, yet no-one has reported it. Suddenly, events seem connected, and it's personal.

Someone out there is playing games. It is time for both Marnie and Noah to face the truth about the creeping, chilling reaches of a troubled upbringing. Keeping quiet can be a means of survival, but the effects can be as terrible as killing.

Goodreads review by Maxine

I've loved every single book in this series. DI Marnie Rome is one of my favourite crime characters of all time. I really enjoyed this book but surprisingly I found it a touch slow in some parts, I hadn't found that with the other three books which all got five stars from me. It's a minor quibble as......more

Goodreads review by Janet

It doesn't seem that long ago when I was first delving into Ms Hilary's first book of this series, Someone Else's Skin, and here we are at book four!!

Quotes

Hilary belts out a corker of a story, all wrapped up in her vivid, effortless prose. If you're not reading this series of London-set police procedurals then you need to start right away Observer, Thriller of the Month

Sarah Hilary writes beautifully and unflinchingly; a dark, disturbing and thought-provoking chiller of a thriller

Sarah Hilary's debut, Someone Else's Skin,was widely acclaimed and won lots of awards. Quieter Than Killing, her fourth, is even more impressive, and DI Marnie Rome is up there in the top division of fictional female detectives The Times

Hilary is my drop-everything writer; always original, always bang-on psychologically, always gripping. I am a huge fan

Descriptively chilling, completely addictive and with a set of characters and storylines that just dig deep into your subconscious and stay there. Sarah Hilary, with the Marnie Rome series, is without doubt one of the top UK crime writers working today Lizlovesbooks

It's dark, it's brilliant, and it tightens like a noose. Sarah Hilary is downright dangerous.

Another tense and chilling book by one of my favourite authors. I was up way past my bedtime devouring each page

A compelling read, emotionally intense and intelligent. I love her fierce, flawed characters

As tense, twisty, tremendous as ever, Sarah Hilary's QUIETER THAN KILLING nails it

Hilary's writing is as precise and deadly as a fine blade. Quieter Than Killing is by turns terrifying and tender, with a twisty, gripping plot where no good deed goes unpunished. This is a fine addition to a superb series
