Silent Running – Action fans need Art Marvik mystery thrillers on their radar
Pauline Rowson
Works of: Fiction
“A tense, terrifying thrill ride that twists and turns with dizzying speed”
“A likeable, smart, tough, but all too human hero make this a cracking-good series – action fans need Marvik on their radar.”
Adrift after leaving the Royal Marines, and smarting from his first failed civilian mission, Marvik seeks refuge in a remote cottage on the Isle of Wight but all that is about to change when a former girlfriend shows up with a disturbing story about the murder of a young woman fifteen years ago and her growing belief that the man convicted of it is innocent.
When the girlfriend goes missing after leaving Marvik’s house the police suspect Marvik of not only her abduction but also her possible murder. In order to prove his innocence, and find the missing girl, Marvik needs to draw on all his skills, instinct and training, and those of his friend, former Royal Marine Special Forces Communicator, Shaun Strathen,to get to the truth.
Their mission, to stop a ruthless killer before he kills again.
