The Silence at Mystery Bay

A Thomas Austin Crime Thriller, Book 8

De: D.D. Black

Narrado por: Joe Hempel

A thousand people watched. No one saw a thing.

Private investigator Thomas Austin is enjoying a relaxing holiday vacation in picturesque Port Townsend, Washington, accompanied by an intriguing new friend. But his tranquility is shattered when the nearby community of Mystery Bay is rocked by the death of a revered musician at an infamous counterculture festival: The Rabbit Hole.

The Rabbit Hole is an annual gathering of musicians, gamers, techies, and political radicals who revere music, art, technology, and—perhaps most highly—mind-altering substances. Bound by an unspoken code of silence, festival goers refuse to aid police in their investigation, raising tensions between law enforcement and dozens of tight-lipped witnesses.

Desperate, the local sheriff enlists Austin and the Kitsap Sheriff's Department to penetrate the stonewalling witnesses and unearth the truth. Navigating the unconventional beliefs and simmering conflicts permeating The Rabbit Hole, Austin nears a breakthrough. But as he does, the festival takes a deadly turn no one saw coming.

In this community bound by defiance and dark secrets, Austin faces his most challenging case yet. A case that will leave him questioning everything he's ever been sure of, even his own sanity.

The thrilling eighth installment in this acclaimed mystery series immerses you in a suspenseful journey into a quaint small town and a futuristic festival so
strange—and so deadly—you'll have to listen to it to believe it.

Engaging storyline, good main characters.

Storyline line has some amateurish flaws, but it's engaging. I like the repeating characters in the series. Some of the story-specific characters are a little ridiculous. In listening to the series, I continue to be frustrated by narrator. Excellent voice, inflections, etc. But SO MANY words continue to be mispronounced. Don't they have an audio editor??!!!!!

A good yarn well told. I am a real fan now of D.D. Black.

I am now a true fan of D.D. Black. Can’t wait for the next one.

Loved this series

Great storyline, we binge listened to all 8 books on a road trip from MS to Oregon and back to Mississippi. Eagerly awaiting more from DD Black!
