About this listen
A vanished couple. A disoriented treasure hunter. A body with suspicious injuries.
Harry Grimm is starting to feel like a local–almost. But when his quiet happiness is interrupted by a confused 80-year-old detectorist claiming to have seen Medieval knights fighting in a nearby ruined castle, the chief inspector is forced to investigate the bizarre claims. However, his focus is soon split to a second case when a teen and her boyfriend disappear without a trace.
As the unflappable DCI spearheads the search for the young lovers, he and his team confront conflicting witnesses, spiraling hostilities, and enraged families pointing accusing fingers. And with the aging detectorist continuing to cause disturbances around the village, Grimm takes his muddled statements more seriously after the discovery of a brutally battered corpse.
Can this gruff detective follow the cryptic clues to a killer?
Silent Ruin is the dramatic 14th book in the DCI Harry Grimm Crime Thrillers series. If you like beloved casts of characters, dark mysteries, and rising tension, then you’ll adore David J. Gatward’s transfixing whodunit.
