About this ebook

Her eyes widened into saucers, eyebrows piling high on her forehead. Pointing a shivering finger at Callan, she thrashed out her legs and wriggled. ‘Him! It’s him! He attacked me!’



A cold case threatens to shatter Callan’s career.


Blaine Macgregor vanished on a summer’s night fifteen years ago. Now, Detective Inspector Callan Cameron is investigating his case one last time. But for Callan it means unearthing a bygone summer he’d rather forget.

Amateur sleuth Aileen Mackinnon overhears a guest’s puzzling conversation and can’t stop asking questions. Is she being duped again? With Callan refusing to open up about his case, Aileen needs a distraction. What better than a case of her own?


As Aileen and Callan balance on a thin rope of betrayal and trust, one question haunts them: Is Blaine still alive?


If books by Paul Austin Ardoin, Janet Evanovich and Jullian Scott keep you up all night, When Birds Fall Silent is the perfect puzzling mystery for you!

Decent plot, but odd writing style. Choppy and doesn't read smoothly. Unrealistic portrayal of the investigation.
