On a quiet street, one house is burning to the ground…
By the time sign language interpreter Paige Northwood arrives, flames have engulfed her client’s home. Though Lukas is safe, his wife is still inside. But she was dead before the fire started…

Is he guilty, or afraid? Only Paige can help him now…

I love Nell Pattison’s books so I was thrilled to have received an advanced copy of The Silent Suspect. Pattison creates such realistic characters. Paige Northwood is a sign language interpreter that has been helping the police solve crime cases. This time, she is helping her client Lukas, after his house fire. The house burned while his wife was inside and Paige has to figure out who the suspect is

What a different theme for a detective-type story! Most of the main characters in this were deaf, giving a little insight into the world of the non-hearing. I loved seeing how the interpreter worked alongside the social worker. Good story! I look forward to reading more from the author!

This is the third installment in a series, something I didn’t realize until I was halfway through the book so I read it as a stand-alone. I loved the author’s writing style and flow of the book. I didn’t feel lost at all but enjoyed the book and will be going back to read the first two!
