After a U.S. marshal and her prisoner are gunned down outside of London’s Heathrow Airport before the prisoner can testify against her boyfriend, the head of a violent animal-rights group, Leeds Detective Sergeant Keen Dunliffe doesn’t seem like the right man for the case. But with an American federal agent dead and homegrown terrorists on the loose, Keen’s undercover experience and knowledge of Yorkshire—the terrorists’ backyard—come into play. He’s ordered to head up a sting operation with Rachel Colver, an inexperienced police constable, who may have personal ties that will help her infiltrate the animal-rights group. However, Keen is worried about a plan that puts Rachel in obvious peril. The two hunker down and start working the case from the inside—while at the same time the most widespread outbreak of hoof-and-mouth disease ever to strike the English countryside is decimating livestock. Brutal extremists and police politics collide in a plot involving murder, intimidation, smuggling, and blackmail—with lethal consequences—in Kingdom of Silence, the second mystery in Lee Wood’s richly imagined and superbly nuanced series featuring DS Keen Dunliffe.
Patrick Gold, born in rural England, grows up neglected with a rough childhood. As times begin to change, Patrick decides to leave his insular childhood farm at a young age. Despite eventually finding stardom in the form of diplomacy, Patrick Gold yearns for more. Ambassador Patrick Gold arrives in the city of Yoriah, untouched by the Western world since 1945. Due to its annexation by the Soviet Union, Yoriah, the former city of Berlin, has vanished from the political sphere. With its independence recently achieved, Patrick Gold succumbs to his ambition and chases this new prospect of success. However, he unmasks a misleading facade hiding the grotesque and abhorrent nature of Yoriah. When no help seems to be existent, Ambassador Patrick Gold takes the responsibility of change. Choosing ethics over orders, Patrick begins a revolution in the hopes of freeing Yoriah from the Mountain and its corruption. Can Patrick Gold overcome the Cycle of Yoriah, or will his dream be swept away by the storm of fate?
A rural expatriate’s struggle to reconcile family, home, love, and faith with the silence of the prairie land and its people Melanie Hoffert longs for her North Dakota childhood home, with its grain trucks and empty main streets. A land where she imagines standing at the bottom of the ancient lake that preceded the prairie: crop rows become the patterned sand ripples of the lake floor; trees are the large alien plants reaching for the light; and the sky is the water’s vast surface, reflecting the sun. Like most rural kids, she followed the out-migration pattern to a better life. The prairie is a hard place to stay—particularly if you are gay, and your home state is the last to know. For Hoffert, returning home has not been easy. When the farmers ask if she’s found a “fella,” rather than explain that—actually—she dates women, she stops breathing and changes the subject. Meanwhile, as time passes, her hometown continues to lose more buildings to decay, growing to resemble the mouth of an old woman missing teeth. This loss prompts Hoffert to take a break from the city and spend a harvest season at her family’s farm. While home, working alongside her dad in the shop and listening to her mom warn, “Honey, you do not want to be a farmer,” Hoffert meets the people of the prairie. Her stories about returning home and exploring abandoned towns are woven into a coming-of-age tale about falling in love, making peace with faith, and belonging to a place where neighbors are as close as blood but are often unable to share their deepest truths. In this evocative memoir, Hoffert offers a deeply personal and poignant meditation on land and community, taking readers on a journey of self-acceptance and reconciliation.
