The ghosts of the past are speaking?but she's the only one listening.
In this Nancy Drew meets Robert Langdon mystery, a young professor finds herself enmeshed in a historical mystery whose unravelling will have both personal and professional consequences for her.
Dr. Jillian Dayton is no ordinary history professor. With her hit blog and podcast, "The History Mystery," she's become a media darling?celebrated by the public but shunned by many academic peers. When she stumbles upon the mummified remains of a baby hidden in a century-old home, Jill is thrust into a chilling investigation that leads straight into the shadows of her city's?and her university's?darkest secrets.
As she delves deeper, Jill discovers a shocking connection between unethical psychological experiments from the 1920s and a modern-day tragedy involving young mothers and their babies. With the help of an unlikely team?a retired forensic anthropologist, a Sherlock Holmes-mad research assistant, and her trusted mentor?Jill fights to expose the truth.
But as the stakes rise, she finds herself entangled in a web of lies, danger, and personal betrayal that threatens her career, her reputation, and her life.
For fans of historical thrillers and investigative mysteries, DON'T SAY A WORD is a compelling exploration of the lengths people will go to bury the truth?and the courage it takes to uncover it. Will Jill succeed in giving a voice to the silenced, or will the past remain buried forever?
