Speak No Evil
By Martyn WaitesPublisher Description
In the fourth novel of this acclaimed crime series, Joe Donovan must help a woman determine if her recent visions are related to the death of a young boy.
Anne Marie is back in the hometown she hasn't seen for forty years, trying to live a normal life with her partner and teenage son. But that's impossible for Anne Marie. Because forty years ago, when she was eleven, she killed a little boy. She is trying to make peace with her past by telling her story to journalist Joe Donovan. But it's not that simple.
Suffering from horrifying visions, she sometimes does bad things. Things she has no memory of afterward. So when a teenager on her housing estate is murdered and she wakes up with blood on her hands, Anne Marie naturally fears the worst. Her fragile life falling apart, Anne Marie turns to those she loves. But where she was expecting support, she finds only betrayal. Desperate, she turns to Donovan for help. But Donovan may have his own reasons for helping her, reasons that have to do with the disappearance of his own son . . .

“Another excellent Joe Donovan adventure! And I liked that the last thing Martyn says in his acknowledgements is that the next book won't end with a cliffhanger. Because this one most certainly did! What's the next book? And is it published yet? And, if so, where can I get it? :)”
