The Silent Daughter: A psychological thriller.
She went to prison for a crime she didn’t commit. The people who really ruined her life live behind a set of gates.Robyn loves Manchester—the noise, the nightlife, the feeling that anything might happen. What she doesn’t love is the six-year prison sentence she’s handed after a jewellery store robbery she had nothing to do with. By the time she walks out, she’s lost her twenties, her friends, and the future she thought she was heading for.
Fresh out and desperate, Robyn takes the only job she can get: peeling veg and scrubbing toilets on the vast Blackthorn estate, home of Manchester’s favourite philanthropic family. The Blackthorns rescue vulnerable girls, fund glossy charities and pose for the cameras in their sprawling mansion.
They may not know Robyn, but she knows them.
Because Robyn has crossed paths with the Blackthorns before—in ways they can’t afford to come to light. Behind the locked doors and perfect smiles lie whispered stories of girls who vanished, secrets buried on the grounds, and a daughter the family never talk about.
As Robyn is drawn deeper into the estate’s shadows, she realises one thing: the Blackthorns will do anything to keep their reputation intact.
And this time, she’s not the one who’s going to take the fall.
