Synopsis
He has never raised his voice in his life.
He doesn’t need to.
When a British detective begins following a money trail out of West Africa, nobody takes him seriously. He is quiet. He is polite. He holds doors open and remembers names and makes people feel entirely at ease.
This is the most dangerous thing about him.
From the fishing ports of Sierra Leone to the backstreets of Conakry, from the shipping terminals of Kuala Lumpur to the monsoon-soaked streets of Vietnam, from the gilded corruption of Milan’s financial elite to the frozen plains of Ukraine, Edward Cole follows a single thread — a thread that connects drug barons, the Italian Mafia, international money laundering, child trafficking, and the deliberate murder of 298 people aboard a civilian aircraft.
He is off-book. Unsanctioned. Entirely alone — except for Solomon Baptiste, former 10 Para and 21 SAS, the most peaceful man Cole has ever met, who is called in when conversation is no longer sufficient.
Together they will dismantle the most sophisticated criminal architecture in the Western world.
Nobody will thank them for it.
QUIET VIOLENCE is a thriller unlike any other — built on a true story, told with the precision of a man who was there. It moves with the quiet confidence of its protagonist: unhurried, controlled, devastating when it needs to be.
This is not Jason Bourne. This is something older, more dangerous, and distinctly British.
The kind of man who buys an umbrella in the airport because his daughter told him to.
The kind of man you never see coming.
A masterwork of modern espionage fiction. For readers of John le Carré, Mick Herron, and anyone who has ever understood that the most powerful thing in any room is controlled silence.
