Elizabeth Cage is a child when she discovers that there are things in this world that only she can see. But she doesn't want to see them, and she definitely doesn't want them to see her.
What is a curse to Elizabeth is a gift to others - a very valuable gift they want to control. When her husband dies, Elizabeth's world descends into a nightmare. But as she tries to piece her life back together, she discovers that not everything is as it seems.
Alone in a strange and frightening world, she's a vulnerable target to forces beyond her control. And she knows that she can't trust anyone....
White Silence is a twisty supernatural thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Wow.
White Silence was my virgin voyage with Katie Scarfe narrating, and she was perfect. She is rivaling Julia Whelan as my favorite narrator now. I’d have to say she made this book much better than if I’d read it. I love Jodi Taylor, but this was not one of her best efforts by any means. There were subplots and characters that felt out of place, and at times the story of Elizabeth was slow for me. I wonder if it’s part of setting up book two. Speaking of book two, I bought it. While White Silence is not Jodi Taylor’s best effort, it’s still much better than many other works out there for my tastes. However, I am left to wonder why Katie Scarfe is not returning as narrator. When I found out someone else was narrating Dark Light my heart sank. Nothing against book two narrator, but the bar is set really high now.
With all said, I’d suggest White Silence to anyone who enjoys good story telling and is familiar with Jodi Taylor. If you are new to Jodi Taylor, I’d suggest St Mary’s or Frogmorton first.
Excellent but…

***** SPOILER ALERTS!!!! *****
Elizabeth's escape from the facility was abrupt and way too easy. But the truly devastating disappointment was when she kept "not understanding" Ted's messages. All along, it had been shown in many ways how much Ted loved and protected her -- suddenly she thinks he's a vengeful spirit?!? And her willful self-deceit in giving free rein to "the thing in her head" when she had hitherto been self-aware and spent her life keeping that power tamped down?? Such crap. During the rest of the book, she's shown her cleverness and her consuming self-preservation, but suddenly she turns into a 19th century femme fatale who can't figure anything out for herself. Extremely frustrating.
Also... what kind of bullshit NON-ENDING was that?!?
Stupidity isn't suspense

So much imagination from this author

The book follows Elizabeth Cage, a very mousy character who has gone through life hiding supernatural abilities from herself and the world. She can do things, and when her husband dies, circumstances force her to face her abilities, and things start to go wrong. The book explores psychic abilities, alternate timelines, and is much darker than anything that I have previously read from Jodi Taylor. I found the end of the book a bit dissatisfying. I listened to the Audible version and the narration by Kate Scarfe was outstanding.
Ultimately this is a good read but if you are new to Jodi Taylor, I would not start here. I would definitely start with The Chronicles of St Mary's. For me, White Silence falls somewhere between 3 and 4 stars. If Jodi Taylor writes more of this series, I will definitely read them, and maybe they will begin to grow on me, but right now I cannot say White Silence was among my favorites.
A bit different

Elizabeth has spent her life trying to keep the thing that lives in her head asleep. She works at a mundane job until she meets and marries Ted, a policeman (or so she thinks) and their lives together are warm, loving and uneventful. She knows that she can see the aura, or the "colors" of everyone she sees, and through their colors she can tell pretty much everything about them. She has shared this gift/curse with NO ONE though as she does not want any undue attention either from the general public nor from the other side. Alas, Dr. Sorenson or is it the Universe that has other plans?
When Elizabeth's husband Ted, is killed abruptly and she finds herself held captive at Sorenson Clinic her entire life and her abilities are on display. If not for the all too timely intervention of another "resident" at Sorenson Clinic Elizabeth would certainly have never returned to her home. Michael Jones is a fast and very capapble friend in her time of need, fascilitating her escape from and possibly her return to Sorenson Clinic. In between though she begins to find out what her life will look like without Ted and almost settles back into being "unknown"......
This book is a good read, and it does have many interesting twists and turns as promised in the advertising.
Where do you turn when there's no one you trust?
