Daughter of Silence by Morris West

At high noon on a hot summer's day, a beautiful young woman shoots the mayor dead. So begins a story of passion and betrayal in a quiet Tuscan village, leading to a sensational trial. The defence team, headed by the brilliant but unhappy Carlo Rienzi, uncovers a sinister conspiracy of silence that threatens to split the community. Can Carlo persuade the judge to grant clemency in what appears to be an open-and-shut case? Can the law intervene in the brutal tradition of vendetta? An international bestseller, Daughter of Silence is a gripping novel with a masterful twist at the end. 'Intricate, dramatic, colourful.' The Spectator 'Powerful and authentic.' The Daily Telegraph 'Absorbing, magnificent.' The Baltimore Sun
'Few writers of bestselling fiction have brought to the popular novel such acute intelligence and ethical perception' Peter Pierce, The Australian
