    About The Silence of Murder

    Winner of the Edgar Award

    The story of a teen’s struggle to prove her brother innocent of murder.

    The Crime: The murder of John Johnson, beloved baseball coach. 

    The Accused: 18-year-old Jeremy Long, who hasn’t spoken a single word in 12 years.

    Witness for the Defense: 16-year-old Hope Long, the only person who believes her brother is innocent.

    Other Suspects: The police have none. But Hope’s list is growing.

    From author Dandi Daley Mackall comes a gripping murder mystery and a dark yet powerfully redemptive story of love, secrets, and silence.

    About The Silence of Murder

    Seventeen-year-old Hope Long’s life revolves around her brother Jeremy.  So when Jeremy is accused of killing the town’s beloved baseball coach, Hope’s world begins to unravel. Everyone is convinced Jeremy did it, and since he hasn’t spoken a word in 9 years, he’s unable to defend himself.  Their lawyer instructs Hope to convince the jury that Jeremy is insane, but all her life Hope has known that Jeremy’s just different than other people—better, even. As she works to prove his innocence—joined by her best friend T.J. and the sheriff’s son, Chase—Hope uncovers secrets about the murder, the townspeople, her family, and herself. She knows her brother isn’t the murderer.  But as she comes closer to the truth, she’s terrified to find out who is.
