Murder in Great Silence (en Inglés) - Fred Benson

A monk has been brutally murdered, and no one saw or heard a thing.

When the Abbot of a Trappist monastery is found shot dead beneath the Abbey bell tower, Detective Mark Cole is called to investigate. Instead of finding clues - fingerprints, witnesses, motives - he is met with silence.

No one heard a gunshot. No one saw a suspicious person.

As Cole tries to penetrate the wall of silence that has been the monks' tradition for centuries, he uncovers secrets that surprise him and stymie the investigation - a monk with an unexpected family history, another with a troubled past, an uncooperative guest, and a mysterious man at the monk's funeral.

Cole and his team must navigate the labyrinth of silence, deception and deceit to find a killer hiding in plain sight. When the clues finally come together, Cole rushes to the scene to prevent another killing. Can he get there in time?

Murder in Great Silence is a suspenseful, page-turning whodunnit that keeps the reader guessing throughout.
