About this listen
For half a lifetime, journalist Martin Scarsden has run from his past. But now there is no escaping.
He'd vowed never to return to his hometown, Port Silver, and its traumatic memories. But now his new partner, Mandy Blonde, has inherited an old house in the seaside town and Martin knows their chance of a new life together won't come again.
Martin arrives to find his best friend from school days brutally murdered, and Mandy the chief suspect. With the police curiously reluctant to pursue other suspects, Martin goes searching for the killer. And finds the past waiting for him.
He's making little progress when a terrible new crime starts to reveal the truth. The media descend on Port Silver, attracted by a story that has it all: sex, drugs, celebrity and religion. Once again, Martin finds himself in the front line of reporting.
Yet the demands of deadlines and his desire to clear Mandy are not enough: the past is ever present.
An enthralling and propulsive thriller from the acclaimed and bestselling author of Scrublands.

Disappointed
I really enjoyed Scrublands but was disappointed in Silver. It starts off promisingly and I think maybe with better editoring it could be better. Too much time driving back and forth did nothing for the story other than drag it out. The bit about eating endangered fish and animals was unnecessary and might give some legitimacy to this although one sentence near the ends basiclly says the perpetrator should stop. This left me with a bad taste . Possibly the wrong people died in the story

Ego journalist and cardboard characters
I like Chris Hammer. The Ivan Lucic Series is fantastic. Characters rounded, great story telling, intricate complex stories. I can't believe the Martin series is written by the same author?! Martin is a stereotypical egotistic journalist, only out for his own glory, but always blabbing on about 'the public has a right to know'...while just exploiting the misery of others. But what is worth, the story or suspense makes no sense. it is so constructed, so unbelievable. His girlfriend Mandy is just a cardboard character for his ego to reflect on. Right in the beginning it makes no sense that she moved to a remote town without telling him anything. As it turns out he grew up in it. How did that never come up in their relationship in the first book? There are so many irritating constructed circumstances, that make no sense.
