Brand of Silence
'Brand of Silence' Summary
Sidney Prale, a man seeking his fortune, returns to New York after ten years of absence. But instead of a warm homecoming, he faces a chilling reality - his old friends shun him, his favorite haunts deny him service, and an inexplicable conspiracy seems to have woven itself around him. The once familiar city has transformed into a labyrinth of secrets and suspicion. Notes hinting at 'retribution' fuel his paranoia, as he struggles to understand the motives behind the ostracization. Driven by a need to reclaim his life and uncover the truth, Prale embarks on a perilous journey of self-discovery, forced to confront a past that threatens to consume his present. As he digs deeper, he unveils a network of hidden connections, uncovering buried truths and unraveling the sinister forces that have driven him into the shadows.Book Details
