Silent Child

Emma Price helplessly watched as a red coat belonging to her six-year-old son was pulled from the river. It was the most tragic story of the year – the little boy, Aiden, had left school during a terrible flood, fell into the river, and drowned. His body was never found. Ten years passed, and Emma finally regained her joy in life. She is married, pregnant, and full of energy again… But everything changes when Aiden returns home. Alive, but too traumatized to speak. Only his body tells the story of a ten-year disappearance. Broken bones, signs of old injuries only hint at the horrors he endured. Aiden never drowned. Aiden was held captive. To make contact with her son, Emma must unmask the monster who took him from her. But who in their tiny village could be capable of such a crime? Aiden has the answers, but will he find the strength within himself to speak?
