Drea Burr has experienced more than her share of loss when a stray dog, cat, and rat enter her life. Although the animals start to mend her broken heart, there is something very unusual about them. During a snowstorm, Drea discovers a chilling set of footprints leading to her front window. Both the police and a ghostly messenger warn her about a killer stalking widows. Help comes from her late husband’s best friend, Adam Hale. As the two try to discover answers, more questions arise— about a killer, ghosts, and animals experimented on in a lab.

Can Drea and Adam survive the threats coming from so many directions and save themselves and the animals they’ve grown to love? Or will more tragedy destroy her second chance at happiness? Find out in this thrilling, cozy paranormal adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heartfelt and Original

One of the elements I enjoy about a D.L. Finn novel is that she always finds a way to weave animals into her story. I've come to expect that. What I didn't expect was the creative and original way she chose to do so in this novel.

Drea Burr has been going through the motions since her husband passed away. She lives in a remote forest location that adds to her solitude, until one day, a dog, a cat, and a rat show up within moments of each other at her home. What follows on their coattails is a whirlwind of a story that includes a serial killer, ghostly interventions, a villain with connections to a drug cartel, and splashes of sci-fi. There's even a light romantic thread.

It's hard to say much about this book without giving away spoilers, but the plot quickly involved me on an emotional level. I loved the characters. Drea was especially strong. She didn't back down when threats engulfed those she loved. Her devotion to the animals and theirs to her was particularly touching. The ending wraps everything with a tidy bow and leaves the reader with a wonderful warm glow. A thoroughly enjoyable read!

This story was very well written and kept my attention all the way through the tale. Not my normal choice in reading material. I will admit that had I known there were going to be sad endings for some animals mentioned in the story, I probably would not have picked up the book. However, Finn handled everything well, and I am glad I read her story. Didn't want to put it down.

4.0 out of 5 stars This One Has It All

Most authors would be hard-pressed to take all the elements this book has and come up with a cohesive premise for a story. But somehow, D.L. Finn managed to do it. Not only did she tie all the threads together at the end, she wove a beautiful word tapestry as she did so.

Grief and isolation are powerful concepts addressed in this story. We begin with Drea, a widow who has recently buried her companion pets and said goodbye to her son because his wife dragged him away from her. She’s lost every relationship that matters to her.

Finding stray pets on her property saves her. But with their arrival comes problems.

Drea discovers the animals aren’t the only ones hanging around her home. She’s got definitive proof that someone’s been stalking her. Someone who has killed before. And now she’s a target.

There are sci-fi and supernatural elements that reveal themselves in organic ways. (I won’t post any information to spoil the story.) There’s also a potential for a romantic happily-ever-after for the grieving woman, if she's able to put aside her past. So many elements fill these pages, and once the action ramps up, we’re treated to one twist after another.

The characters are among some of my favorites in recent novels. The world-building is solid, and the plot advances logically despite the many surprises.

If you’re a fan of paranormal mysteries with a sci-fi element and bits of romance woven in—who can say no to that, as there’s something for everyone—then you’d enjoy The Voice in the Silence.

Drea is a widow trying to come to grips with the loss of her husband Rob, the love of her life. Time is moving inexorably on but she’s not. Then three amazing animals enter her world and everything changes.
Not all of the changes are for the better as she finds herself stalked by a serial killer. Adam, her former husband’s best friend, is a policeman whose wife has also passed and wants nothing more than to protect Drea.
Now with the animals she has secrets to keep and with Adam, decisions to make. Does she live in the past or let go of Rob and move on?
This was one of my favorite reads. It held my attention from first page to last and had a very satisfying ending. Definitely recommended for animal lovers. If you don’t like animals this may not be the book for you. If you do, and enjoy a little paranormal and sci-fi thrown in with your adventures, you’re in for a fun, twists- and-turns read. I enjoyed it very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Winner All the Way Around!

Give me a book full of animals and I’m a happy camper. Make them amazingly clever talking animals who know things humans don’t, and I’m over the moon! Throw in a woman in deadly peril from an unknown widow-stalking killer, and a police officer who’s committed to catching him with the help our heroine, Drea, and her deceased husband’s best friend, Adam, then top it all off with a ghost who speaks in riddles, and I’m on board straight through to the end.

Excellent writing, engaging characters, and a very original plot make this one a winner all the way around! Highly recommended!

Talk about a page-turner! Behind the cover of A Voice in the Silence by author D.L. Finn, you’ll find a thriller mixed with romance, paranormal, and three endearing animals. This book has it all and it will keep you guessing right up until the satisfying ending. My favorite character, Drea was both likable and admirable. Her love for animals was evident throughout the story. Finn did a fantastic job weaving the complex layers within the story. If you enjoy books that take you for a ride with a lot of twists and turns, you won’t want to miss out on this gem!

4.0 out of 5 stars Serial killer, romance and much more!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 3, 2022

Drea is feeling bereft after the passing of her much loved husband. She lives in a remote part of the forest but joins a bereavement group. Extraordinary one day three furry friends come to join her: a rat, cat and a dog. What she doesn't know is that they have incredible abilities....

In this unusual tale you are treated to a variety of genres with elements of murder mystery, ghost, human interest, romance, and extra terrestial! And D. L. Finn's obvious love of animals and her stance against animal experimentation comes to the fore too.

Some lovely descriptions: The crackling of the fire filled the otherwise quiet room. Night’s shroud concealed the landscape within minutes of the killer’s escape. The darkness offered a break from the snow as the clouds pulled back, revealing stars and bringing the temperature down even further. The full Beaver Moon illuminated the scene, but in the shadows of the forest, a killer lurked.

I enjoyed it. The ending was hopeful and heart-warming and gave a sense of moving on in a sweet way from bereavement and loss.

A Voice In The Silence is recommended if you love novels with heart that are a little different from the mainstream. Good characters, ( both human and otherwise ) and pacing make it a pleasing, at times suspenseful and ultimately romantic read.
