A prize-winning psychological crime thriller featuring melancholy Finnish detective Kimmo Joentaa.
A young girl disappears while cycling to volleyball practice. Her bike is found in exactly the same place that another girl was murdered, thirty-three years before. The original perpetrator was never brought to justice -- could they have struck again? The eeriness of the crime unsettles not only the police and public, but also someone who has been carrying a burden of guilt for many years...
Detective Kimmo Joentaa calls upon the help of his older colleague Jetola, who worked on the original murder, in the hope that they can solve both cases. But as their investigation begins, Kimmo discovers that the truth is not always what you expect.

About the Author:
JAN COSTIN WAGNER was born in 1972 in Langen/Hesse near Frankfurt. After studying German language, literature and history at Frankfurt University, he went on to work as a journalist and freelance writer. He divides his time between Germany and Finland (the home country of his wife). Silence is his third novel, and the second to be translated into English after Ice Moon.
Review:
"Similar in tone to Mankell's early Wallander novels, this one drifts up off the page with all the deadly intensity of mustard gas" Irish Times "By turns brutal, exciting and elegiac, it's a page-turner with real heart and a brilliant addition to the current vogue for Scandinavian crime" Booktrust
