Excellent story

This is the second book I have read by Patricia Carlon. I loved the storyline and the way she had you believe one thing when it turned out to be something totally different. I plan on reading each one of her books. I hope to see more from her.

Suspensful! The subtle twists & turns took me by surprise!

I found Crime of Silence at my local library in the new books section - altho' written by Australian author Patricia Carlon in 1965 - it was only published in America in 1998. After the first few chapters I was hooked - while still getting used to some of the language differences. This is a great physochological thriller! I thought I had it figured out but I wasn't even close! Patricia Carlon has a masterful way of being subtlely suspenseful. I hope to find more of her novels in the US soon. I highly recommend this book to any mystery lover.

Stunning writing, but with a fairly unbelievable ending

This is the third book of Carlon's that I have read(all over 30 years old) and she can write!! The character development and plot are outstanding. However, and I don't want to spoil it for those who have yet to read it, I found the ending a bit unbelievable and convoluted. The motive and plan seemed unrealistic, involving a house of cards that could have fallen if only one little event hadn't played out as planned, part- icularily the reaction of the intended victim to to events he was presented with. Having said that, I wouldn't miss her next book--if there is one.
