The Second Silence by Eileen Goudge



Best Selling Author of One Last Dance

From book jacket:
When Noelle Van Doren's only child is stolen from her by her wealthy estranged husband, it is she who must battle, against an onslaught of false evidence, to prove she's a fit parent. Into the fray step Noelle's long-divorced parents, whose quest to discredit their socially prominent son-in-law raises questions about his dubious past...and disquieting realizations about their own. After all these years the passion that once consumed them as teenagers proves as inescapable as the mounting evidence against Noelle's husband Robert.

Only Charlie, Mary and Noelle know Robert, supposedly a paragon of civic virtue, is not who he seems. With a little help from Noelle's kid sister and her smoldering, street-smart boyfriend, they frantically peel away layers of mystery surrounding Robert and a thirty-year-old suicide. But they also find themselves on the path of a cold-blooded killer. It soon becomes plain that this battle is not just to regain custody, but to keep loved ones alive.

In the midst of this heartrending crisis, the lives of each begin to change in unexpectedly wrenching ways. For Charlie and Mary, the years apart have made them realize that one's first love is often one's best love, but now new obstacles stand in their way. Noelle is astonished to discover a reservoir of strength in the midst of her struggle and, most surprising of all, the ability to open her heart to a new love.
