Publisher Description
On a normal Wednesday afternoon, Judge Scott Sampson is preparing to pick up his six-year-old twins for their weekly swim. His wife Alison texts him with a change of plan: she has to take them to the doctor instead. So Scott heads home early. But when Alison arrives back later, she is alone - no Sam, no Emma - and denies any knowledge of the text . . .
The phone then rings: an anonymous voice tells them that the Judge must do exactly what he is told in an upcoming drug case and, most importantly, they must 'say nothing'.
So begins this powerful, tense breakout thriller about a close-knit young family plunged into unimaginable horror. As a twisting game of cat and mouse ensues, they know that one false move could lose them their children for ever.
Hugely suspenseful - with its fascinating insight into the US judicial system and its politics of influence and nepotism - Say Nothing is, above all, the poignant story of the terror these parents face, and their stop-at-nothing compulsion to get their children back.

Gut-wrenching from start to finish, Brad Parks cleverly hands us a cliff-hanger to close out each chapter. The American crime author perfectly captures the desperate unravelling of Sampson and his wife Alison’s relationship as they desperately attempt to meet each demand the merciless abductors throw their way. With his reputation in tatters, marriage under intense strain and children gone, what else can Sampson possibly give?
