Elizabeth Cage is a child when she discovers that there are things in this world that only she can see. But she doesn't want to see them, and she definitely doesn't want them to see her.

What is a curse to Elizabeth is a gift to others - a very valuable gift they want to control. When her husband dies, Elizabeth's world descends into a nightmare. But as she tries to piece her life back together, she discovers that not everything is as it seems.

Alone in a strange and frightening world, she's a vulnerable target to forces beyond her control. And she knows that she can't trust anyone....

White Silence is a twisty supernatural thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Strange one this. Without giving too much away my overriding wish would be to have had this story set in the fifties. To achieve this the only changes that would need to be made would be the omission of one reference to a mobile phone. The rest of the story, characters and attitudes are perfectly suited to a past experienced from black and white films. The view of a woman's role (housewife or nurse), children (teatray toboggans and japes climbing trees) and men (moustache and 'off to work' mindset) is really jarring to contemporary ears. I spent the first half of this thinking that the twist was that the protagonists were from the forties, but sadly no. There's a comfortable 'Sunday afternoon drama' type pleasure to the use of language, but the situations are so strangely dated as to grate. A couple of shock (modern) scenes are resolved in the most cringworthy way, and there is no ending. All that said, it's not a bad listen, but aimed i think at the over fifties market. As far as the narration goes it's clear precise diction with a good range of definable characters, but the nurses are Irish or east end, people in authority are posh, children speak like Grange Hill never happened and everyone is definitely white.

Enjoyable but Uneven

Feeble heroine, clichéd characters, tedious dialogue, and worst of all, a lengthy dream sequence. Won't bother with any more of this series.

Just annoying

White Silence is a little different from her other works, but no less compelling. With twists and shocks in every chapter, it is a thrilling tale that literally keeps you guessing until the very last sentence. It was excellently read by Kate Scarfe.

Yet another brilliant story from Jodi Taylor

Dissent really enjoy it ...was like a long journey where the vehicle kept spluttering and almost getting up to speed but not quite making it !

A bit disjointed and keeps almost getting there.

Love the St Mary’s books and do thought I’d give this a try. Enjoyed it - lots of twists and turns- I won’t say what as other reviewers have done as it kind of spoils it!! In fact wish I hadn’t read some of the reviews as tu

Enjoyable
