The Quality of Silence by Rosamund Lupton
4.0
The Quality of Silence by Rosamund Lupton was a slow burn. A very slow burn. The first half of the book I thought the MC was out of her mind and there really was no way her husband was still alive, coupled with the fact that she was driving into a horrendous Alaska storm (even by Native standards) with her deaf 10yo daughter; made me wince the whole time.
Regardless of whether I thought it was a dumb decision on the MCs part, it was still pretty suspenseful in the beginning. Would they make it through the storm? Is her husband really still alive?
After a while though, it kind of felt like it was dragging on. There wasn’t really anything happening for quite a while. About half way through we finally get some action in a stalker and some graphic pictures to the MCs email. The whole time your left clueless as to what is happening, and where it is going to go.
I love mystery’s that can still really surprise me, and The Quality of Silence did an excellent job! I will definitely be picking up Ms. Luptons next book.
I received this novel in a Goodreads Giveaway from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
