description: When you can't hear...death comes silently. Scotland Yard detective Valerie Crowther is assigned to investigate the murder of a student at a university for the Deaf in London England. The murder investigation coincides with a deadly flu virus outbreak resulting in the university being quarantined from the outside world. When more Deaf students are murdered it becomes clear there is a serial killer operating within the sealed-off university. A chilling cat-and-mouse game evolves as the unknown killer targets Valerie and the virus claims more lives. A stunning claustrophobic whodunit murder mystery Silent Fear (A novel inspired by true crimes) is the eighth novel by father-and-son writing team Lance &amp; James Morcan. Included is a commentary by Deaf filmmaker Brent Macpherson on the unique aspects of Deaf culture the story covers. Together the Morcans and Macpherson are currently developing a feature film adaptation of Silent Fear.
