Background info
Silent Fear
is dedicated to the many millions of deaf people around the world. This
novel was inspired by the murders of deaf students at Gallaudet
University, one of the world’s most prestigious learning institutions
for the deaf, between 1980 and the early 2000’s. The investigating
authorities didn’t know if the killings were ‘inside jobs’ and for a
time nearly everyone connected to Gallaudet was under suspicion.
Silent Fear
is the latest novel by New Zealand father-and-son writing team Lance
& James Morcan, authors of seven other published novels including
THE NINTH ORPHAN, WHITE SPIRIT and INTO THE AMERICAS.
