About this listen

What happens when someone's too scared to speak?

Ex-police officer Sebastian Clifford had decided to limit his work as a private investigator, until Detective Constable Bird, aka Birdie, asks for his help.

Twelve months ago a young girl was abandoned on the streets of Market Harborough in shocking circumstances. Since then the child has barely spoken. With the police unable to trace her identity, they've given up.The social services team in charge of the case worry that the child has an intellectual disability, but Birdie and her aunt – who’s fostering the little girl – disagree.They believe she’s gifted and intelligent, but something bad happened and she’s living in constant fear.

Clifford trusts Birdie’s instinct, and together they work to find out who the girl is so she can be freed from the past. But as secrets are uncovered, the pair realise it's not just the child who’s in danger....

Speak No Evil is the second in the Detective Sebastian Clifford series. Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Matt Brolly and Joy Ellis.

Excellent read and performance

English crime stories are the best. And this was no exception. Great next book in the series and I will look forward to book 3. I just could not sleep until I finished the whole book.

disappointed in this storyline

As someone with experience helping women from domestic violence and abuse situations, I was very disappointed in this book, The setting in this story clearly fell into that category. To have it twist to be the woman's fault was really a let down. I couldn't even listen the interview chapters and fast forwarded to the end. Not sure that I will continue with this series.
