Mute

If Wes is such a quiet man – mute from birth, in fact – why does someone try to murder him one Friday night in the office toilet? Shaken, and dismissed by the police for reasons he doesn’t understand, he goes on the run. But Keiran, his would-be killer and member of a survivalist cult, is not giving up, and tries to get to Wes through his wife, Alex. Though kept apart, Wes and Alex must find out what has happened and why. But when even the murderer’s motives are unclear, who really holds the key to the truth?

Mute is a darkly comic thriller in the spirit of Graham Greene and the Coen brothers.

The first of the Strathurst novels.
