Publisher's Summary
On Sunday, February 3rd 1990, seven-year-old Danny Redpath disappeared from his home. Four months later, his body was found in the nearby forest, washed clean of all evidence. Over time, more bodies were discovered; more families devastated forever.
Apprehended while attempting to abduct another child, Jonathan Egan-Walsh was charged with the murders of thirteen boys. Convicted on all counts, he received life in prison and went unrepentant, still refusing to reveal the whereabouts of one of his victims, Zachery Marshall.
Twenty-five years later, Zachery’s mother Diane is still searching for his body. When Jonathan dies in custody, she realises she will never know its location – until she receives a letter he left in his cell, in which he admits he was guilty of all the crimes of which he was accused, except the murder of her son.
Diane tracks down the woman in charge of the case at the time, former DI Caroline Turner, and together with Jonathan’s biographer Alex Frost they start to investigate. Could this be the killer’s final twist of the knife – or is he telling the truth at long last? Sooner or later, this secret buried and undisturbed for a quarter of a century will come to light.

enjoyable
I've been listening to books this last week in an attempt to give my eyes a break. This had been on my to-listen list for a while, and I finally got to it.
First, the female narrator was grating. Her voice went right through me at first, but I sped up the playback and eventually got used to it.
The writing was good, the characters were well rounded, and the mystery was pretty solid. The only thing is, the killer was blindingly obvious from the absolute start. Even the motive was pretty easy to guess. It's always a little disappointing when that happens. But otherwise, I enjoyed it.

Good read for the serial killer fan
First I've read of Michael Wood but won't be the last. I chose it because Joanne Froggatt was narrating. Glad I did.

Finished in a day and got my whole house clean:)
I love listening to books that Joanne Froggatt narrates.
The silent child is my favourite so I looked into books that were in the same vein and was very happy with this book.
It kept me interested from the start to the finish.
This is my first book from the author but I will definitely be looking into more
