The Silent Girls by Dylan Young

'Ambulance and police. Something's happened. I don't know what. But my little girl.' A sob choked off the sentence. He took a deep breath and finished, 'It's my daughter.'

When a young girl disappears from the edge of the local forest, the Gloucestershire police are convinced she's been taken by the same killer who stabbed to death beautiful, young Emily Risman eighteen years ago. They're desperate to finally have the evidence to put him away. To save another girl before it's too late.

Only Detective Anna Gwynne thinks he isn't the real killer.

Anna can't find proof and as time is running out, she realises she needs to get inside the killer's twisted mind. And she knows just who to ask. Hector Shaw, in prison for killing the six men who caused his own daughter's death.

Can Anna get what she needs from Hector before another life is lost, or could he lead her down a path that puts her own life in grave danger?

An absolutely page-turning thriller that will have you hooked. If you love Val McDermid, Angela Marsons and M.J. Arlidge, you won't be able to put down Come Out to Play.

Dylan Young grew up in a mining village in South Wales before boarding a train for London. A 35-year career in the NHS followed, the last 27 as a consultant ophthalmologist. Three dark psychological thrillers for Random House emerged in the late nineties and over the last decade, under different pseudonyms, he's written children's books and an adult contemporary fantasy series. But retiring from the NHS has allowed Dylan to spend (even) more time in his writing office -- a shed in the garden. www.dylanyoungauthor.com @dyoungwrites www.facebook.com/dyoungwrites/
