The Dead Do Speak

SILENT AS THE GRAVE

When her mother's burial ceremony is interrupted by a horrific discovery, detective sergeant Mia Harvey is relieved. She'd much rather solve a cold case than face her all-consuming grief. The investigation proves to be a grisly distraction, however, as grave diggers unearth the mummified remains of a pregnant woman.

Forensics results reveal the woman's identity—Rebecca Crawford, a successful personal trainer. Though Rebecca's estranged boyfriend and business partner is an obvious suspect, Mia wonders if the local vicar and his family know more than they're willing to admit. Secrets, dark and grief-plagued, are festering deep beneath the surface of the quiet town of Larchborough. And a killer, driven by desperate vengeance, will do whatever it takes to prevent the truth from coming to light.
