The Quality of Silence

AUTHOR: Rosamund Lupton

On 24th November Yasmin and her deaf daughter Ruby arrive in Alaska.

Within hours they are driving alone across a frozen wilderness

Where nothing grows

Where no one lives

Where tears freeze

And night will last for another 54 days.

They are looking for Ruby’s father.

Travelling deeper into a silent land.

They still cannot find him.

And someone is watching them in the dark.

Praise:

"Like a breath of icy air, this relentlessly tense thriller is also a child's-eye family drama like none other. Not since Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow have I shivered like this."

Emma Donoghue

"I loved The Quality of Silence. Scary, suspenseful and so exquisitely, evocatively written I often found myself shivering as if I were there in Alaska with Ruby and her mother. Everything you want in a wonderful novel."

Liane Moriarty

"Masterful pacing, riveting plotting. The Quality of Silence will have your heart thumping. Absolutely gripping."
