Resumen del Editor

A young man discovers a family secret that turns his world upside down in this dark, emotive, shocking psychological thriller by number-one best-selling author Michael J. Malone.

John Docherty’s mother has just been taken into a nursing home following a massive stroke and she’s unlikely to be able to live independently again. With no other option than to sell the family home, John sets about packing up everything in the house. In sifting through the detritus of his family’s past he’s forced to revisit, and revise his childhood.

For in a box, in the attic, he finds undeniable truth that he had a brother who disappeared when he himself was only a toddler. A brother no one ever mentioned. A brother he knew absolutely nothing about. A discovery that sets John on a journey from which he may never recover.

For sometimes in that space where memory should reside there is nothing but silence, smoke and ash. And in the absence of truth, in the absence of a miracle, we turn to prayer. And to violence.

Shocking, chilling and heartbreakingly emotive, In the Absence of Miracles is domestic noir at its most powerful, and a sensitively wrought portrait of a family whose shameful lies hide the very darkest of secrets.

Dark, heavy.

It took a while to figure out what was going on. It dragged a bit towards the middle but then really took off, with loads of twists and turns. It did leave me with one unanswered question but it would be a spoiler. The author did a good job of detailing John’s conflicting emotions as he dealt with his trauma. King was excellent, as usual.

Family tragedy

Full of twists and turns, this is the story of family secrets and misfortune. Well done narration but sometimes the brogue is hard to understand. The story is haunting.

Very well done … but….

It’s a good story and it is performed well…. but I can’t say that I enjoyed the experience. I was very ready for it to be over.

HARSH TRUTHS

A harsh truth that had been neglected, now a part of "me too" reckoning. Cultural and linguistic nuances were true to my own Scottish-Welsh heritage. A definite must read; could be part of a strong, mature book club group.

Intense!

What a story. Intense, dark, and shocking. However, also gripping, as well as excellently narrated. Couldn't stop listening.

Wonderful Book

Purchased the book because Angus King was narrating and as it turned out I found a new author that I will be looking out for.
