Splintered Silence
ByPublisher Description
It’s hard to bury the past when bodies keep turning up …
After an abrupt end to her tour of duty, former Marine MP Brynn Callahan and her canine partner, Wilco, arrive stateside—both bearing the scars of battle. With a mix of affection and misgivings, Brynn heads back to Bone Gap, Tennessee, and the insular culture she’d escaped when she enlisted.
The Irish Travellers keep to themselves in the mountains, maintaining an uneasy coexistence with the “settled” townspeople of McCreary. But when Wilco’s training as a cadaver dog leads Brynn to a body in the woods, long-simmering tensions threaten to boil over. Forming a reluctant alliance with local sheriff Frank Pusser, Brynn must dig up secrets that not only will rattle her close-knit clan to its core, but may forever change her perception of who she is … and put her back in the line of fire.
“A terrific read.”
—Christine Carbo
“Heart-felt and pulse-pounding.”
—Harry Hunsicker
“Furlong will keep you on the edge of your seat.”
—K.J. Howe
“Brynn and her war-injured dog are characters readers will root for.”
—Suzanne Chazin
“Susan Furlong’s steel-tough, authentic storytelling delivers.”
—Larry D. Sweazy

“This book captured me from the very beginning, the bond between Wilco and Brynn hit me right it the heart, and the twist absolutely shocked me. Captivating from start to finish, probably my favorite book I’ve read to date.”

“Brynn and Wilco are fantastic characters. Their pain and struggles are heartbreaking and so real to you while you're reading. I thought the Bone Gap community was well written and so interesting, i kept getting a Next Of Kin vibe from it. The danger and mystery in the story had me on edge and guessing until the end! I loved it!! This book just pulled me right in from the beginning!
Can't wait for more!!”

“I love the bond relationship between Brynn and Wilco. The storyline kept me interested and it had good mystery and the ending wasn’t predictable. I enjoyed this read. The differences between the pavees and the settled, the life decisions. It was good.”
