Remain Silent by Susie Steiner

I think Manon may be my new favourite superhero.
Juggling cold cases, a home life of tiddler, teenager & man of marriedness for many years. The 'defective' inspector Bradshaw is horrified when out with her son Teddy to find a body hanging from a tree.
Despite her 3 days a week Manon become involved with the case, being her bolshy self & using her gut instinct to further the investigation along with her sidekick Davy.
What I liked about this read was the human side of each character. How things done for the best of reasons can mean everything else falls apart.
Exploitation and the lottery of where you were born, or who you were born to makes this an interesting melting pot of anger and wow.
Manon surely needs to come back as a private Detective. I'd love that.
A very clever & thought provoking read.
It loosely reminded me in places of Nightingale Point by Luan Goldie, especially the father & Elise.
