The Guns Are Silent. The Dead Are Not
The world has been eagerly anticipating a worthy successor to Sebastian Faulks' iconic novel Birdsong. And now, Philip Gray has delivered it. David Young, the author of Stasi Child, has crafted a captivating tale that will leave readers spellbound.
Set in 1919, on the battlefields of northern France, the guns of the Great War have fallen silent. Special battalions are now tasked with the solemn duty of gathering up the fallen soldiers for mass burial. Among them is Amy Vanneck's fiancé, one soldier lost amidst the chaos. Determined to find out what happened to the man she loved, Amy sets off to France.
Meanwhile, Captain Mackenzie, haunted by the memories of his fallen comrades, cannot return home until they are laid to rest. His task is disrupted when a gruesome discovery is made beneath the ruins of a German strongpoint. What Mackenzie uncovers is a war crime of inhuman savagery, a chilling reminder of the horrors of war. As the dark truth unfolds, he and Amy are drawn into a relentless hunt for a psychopath, a man who views the atrocity at Two Storm Wood as just the beginning of his twisted agenda.
This atmospheric portrayal of the pity of war is a testament to Philip Gray's storytelling prowess. Longlisted for the 2023 CWA Historical Dagger Award, The Guns Are Silent. The Dead Are Not is a must-read for anyone who loves historical fiction, and a haunting reminder of the human cost of conflict.
