The gripping story of what it's like to be the daughter of a woman who changed the world - perfect for fans of The Handmaid's Tale and The Power

A BBC RADIO 2 BOOK CLUB PICK AND KINDLE NO. 1 BESTSELLER


'Engrossing and original. The Silence Project will get people talking' Bernardine Evaristo


Mother. Martyr. Murderer.

On Emilia Morris's thirteenth birthday, her mother Rachel moves into a tent at the bottom of their garden. From that day on, she never says another word.

Inspired by Rachel's example, other women join her and together they build the Community. Eight years later, Rachel and thousands of her followers shock the world as they silence themselves forever.

In the aftermath of what comes to be known as the Event, the Community's global influence quickly grows. As a result, the whole world has an opinion about Rachel - whether they see her as a callous monster or a heroic martyr - but Emilia has never voiced hers publicly. Until now.

Readers can't stop shouting about The Silence Project:
'A true masterpiece' *****
'One hell of a book!' *****
'Had me hooked' *****
'Red-hot' *****
'I don't think I've ever read a book as quickly' *****
'Gave me the shivers' *****

"An utterly compelling page-turner, you'll keep thinking about this novel long after you've put it down." - Glamour

"A page-turner" - Scotland on Sunday

"'Multilayered and philosophical ... grippingly compulsive ... reminiscent of writers such as Margaret Atwood, Naomi Alderman and Miriam Toews ... inventive and original" - Nation Cymru

"A slow burn that leads up to an incendiary conclusion. It holds a mirror up to our cultural compulsion to have a take on every tragedy that passes our screens, and the way that movements can spiral out of control. But it's also a deep dive into the divide between a mother and a daughter, and the struggle to understand who your parents are outside their identity as your parents." - Readers Digest

"Captivating ... a nimble and fascinating page-turner" - Buzz

"A remarkable novel ... illustrates the evil that lies in the heart of men's (and women's) hearts when they decide their way is the only way" - Meath Chronicle
