Book Description
Disappearances. Murder. The Price of Silence in a Small Town.
In dire need of a job, Todd Fielding accepts the offer to work at The Brindle Times -- even if she has to move to the lackluster town of Brindle. As she settles into her new home, Todd is fully prepared to adapt to the boredom of small-town life, but her preconceptions of Brindle are completely shattered when a local girl disappears. Even more shocking to Todd is the town's sheer indifference to the incident. No one -- not ever the police -- appear particularly concerned.
When Todd looks deeper into the story, she discovers that five other girls have "run away" from Brindle under strange circumstances over the past twenty years. As she sets out to uncover the history of a town that has cloaked itself in secrecy for far too long, evidence of manipulation and cold-blooded murder begin to unravel. And Todd may be the next victim to pay the deadly price of silence.

Excellent character development. even if the plot developed a little slowly..........2007-08-24
I am a big fan of Kate Wilhelm's Barbara Holloway books, but have not always been as impressed with her others. I had a difficult time getting started with this book, but eventually became snared by the remarkable character development: Ms. Wilhelm, who appears to be in the middle stage of her life, has written very convincingly about two women who are at opposite spectrums. Todd, the main character, is young, multidimensional, ambitious, capable and confident. Ruth Ann is nearing the end of her life, and is also portrayed as energetic, intelligent and attractive. I was charmed by the relationship between Ruth Ann and Maria, her longtime companion/housekeeper. The book resolves a little too conveniently, but I have to say I enjoyed reading it. Her descriptions of the central Oregon desert are lyrical, and I especially appreciated Todd's comment about a sunset being difficult to capture in art or photography "because it is a process, not an event." So true. As a former Oregonian, I loved reading about Oregon's beauty. Good read. Karen Knapp
What tells the geese it's time to fly?.......2007-02-02
This is a subtle, walking pace novel that's really about conscience and what tension does to a small town.
If you are looking for a rip-roaring thriller with twists and turns, this is not it.
The setting is beautifully described, as are the characters in this book. It is nicely drawn, and explores the parts of the mind that work when we aren't paying attention.
It's an old fashioned novel; a good book for contemplating.
Certainly not for everyone, but a good read none the less.
AWARD WINNING NARRATOR SPINS A CHILLING TALE.......2006-09-01
Oregon, home of and a favored setting for author Wilhelm, is the background for this dark tale of murder, hypocrisy, and lies. Brindle is a small town that appears on the surface to be a haven of peace and quiet. It is quite the opposite as Todd Fielding soon discovers.
Todd has come to Brindle to work for the local newspaper while her husband, Barney, pursues his doctoral degree in a nearby university town. Newspaper owner Ruth Ann Colonna is planning a special edition of the paper featuring Brindle then and now. So, Todd busies herself becoming acquainted with her new community.
The superficial serenity of Brindle isn't interrupted by the sudden disappearance of a young girl. This sets Todd to wondering - she does more than wonder when she discovers that five other girls have mysteriously vanished during the past two decades. What is even stranger and rather frightening is that no one seems to care about the whereabouts of the girls.
Newcomers to any place who start probing are seldom welcome, and Todd fuels a fire that threatens to get away when she decides to write about the girls' disappearance. Ruth Ann seems to be her only ally, and Barney is often miles away.
Voice performer and Audie Award winner Anna Fields successfully captures the outrage, fear, and determination of Todd as she seeks to uncover the truth. A more than satisfying listening experience!

Engaging, but not her best.......2006-06-18
Wilhelm is an excellent writer, and a master of psychological suspense. This book is no exception. However, I found it a little less satisfying than her best; a couple of the characters didn't quite ring true.
The plot is one Wilhelm has used a couple of times before: an attractive and intelligent young person who is at loose ends as to what to do with herself, and not quite sure of her life's direction, winds up through chance circumstances in a small town where something is deeply wrong, and no one wants to talk about it.
That's part of the problem I had with this book, though; while in past books such as "Skeletons," the secret has had to do with the past and is hidden by an older generation, in this book, the problem is ongoing and yet people are still ignoring it. Teenage girls keep disappearing - and no one pursues them or suspects them of anything other than running away. While that might have been the case half a century ago, in these days of entire organizations built around missing children, and pictures of missing children on every milk carton, and TV shows about searching for missing people, it just didn't seem likely to me that in a single village, 5 or more teenage girls would disappear and no one would be raising a stink, not even their parents, until our protagonist appears. And that in a relatively small town, no one prior to her would have noticed the similarities between the girls, nor figured out what other things were going on right when the disappearances started.
It also seems unlikely to me that the kidnapper could be doing the kinds of things they are doing, and not have other abnormalities show up in their behavior or personalities, that no one else would ever think that there was anything odd or unusual in the way this person behaves or things they say. (I'm not giving away who it was; that's why I'm avoiding saying she or he.) I think that people who are this sick show signs of the sickness in more than one way and generally aren't able to completely compartmentalize their lives. It's one thing if the person is a loner and doesn't associate with their neighbors at all, so that no one ever talks to them much; it's different if the person has a regular job and talks to many people every day and goes to social events: some other sign that something is WRONG with this person would show up. So I found the characterization of this person a little unrealistic, and the behavior of the neighbors a bit unbelievable.
Nonetheless, it's a well-written story and lots of action for our heroine and her husband. And I know that many people like this kind of suspense and think that there ARE completely hidden monsters among us, and those people won't have the reservations I had about the realisticness of the villain.
Silence would have been a whole lot better.......2006-02-13
This book is about the same subject as the book I read immediately before it (The Bright Forever by Lee Martin)--the abduction of young girls. While Martin's book was so realistic it might have been a true story, The Price of Silence has a plot that is totally far-fetched and convoluted. The idea might have been good, but the author sure didnt deliver. The dialogue was just terrible, alternating between every cliche I've ever heard and things no one would ever say, like "She's walking in a cloud of pheromenes." The book is not as dumb as The Stepford Wives, which the characters allude to fairly often, but it comes close. Finally, I am sick and tired of girls being given boys' names (it is no longer a novelty). I can handle Alex and Drew and Morgan, but TODD?? I mention this because every few pages I had to remind myself that Todd was a woman, and this was an irritating distraction. My two most common thoughts were "Oh, come on!" and "What exactly is the point here?" Fortunately I received this book free.

Fascinating and informative.......2007-07-23
I appreciate Ms. Goodwin's meticulous research, risking her own safety in order to present a picture of what is really going on in these countries, and it does help explain the alarming growth of Islamic extremism.
This book opens a window onto lives that people in the United States have always wondered about. Ms. Goodwin did an excellent job of interviewing men and women from all facets of society; poor, middle-class, and wealthy. It was a fascinating and informative read, and an essential book if one wishes to understand the daily life of women surviving under the iron fist of Islamic extremism.
Islam is cancer.......2007-06-27
Islam - like all religions - is cancer. It brings nothing to the world but bestiality, ignorance and cruelty. It feeds on Western values and economics while at the same time destroying it. And that is exactly what cancer does - killing what makes it live. God, if you are almighty, why don't you destroy yourself and leave people alone.
Lifting up the veil and removal of the burqa!.......2007-06-15
After reading this book, I am hopeful that the degradation and oppression and forced marriages of young muslim women in the middle east and over the world will be removed. Honor killings, stoning and the rise of fundamentalism which somehow translates into even more restiction on the lives of women must be address at the musallah, masjids/mosques all over the world. Until there is an earnest dialogue regarding the issue of women's rights, and the issues of all of the above, Islam will be still considered in the wake of what is happening in Iraq, Iran, Sudan, Nigeria and all over the world as not a religion of peace .. but a religion of suffering, oppression and death. And I am a Muslimah.
Surprised True Adherrants Of Mohammed Don't Proclaim "Jihad" Against These Extremists!.......2006-06-08
I am reading this book now,and was amazed how informative it is. Very scary stuff about how our government is selling America to the arabs!I was not surprised about the way these countries treat their females,as I have read several other books on the subject. Females,from pre-teen on up,are imprisoned and treated as "BREEDERS",slaves and sex objects for the male's gratification. What really surprised me was all the info about what Muhammed really taught and how these hypocrites even corrupt their own prophet's and holy book's teachings,so these over-sex-crazed,perverts can have their way! Too bad God hasn't seen fit to strike them all with impotency! Maybe with time,AIDS will do the job. I am surprised that true belivers and followers of Muhammed and the Quran haven't declared a "Jihad" against all these infidel's! Now that WOULD be a "Holy" war.
We Americans should be doing everything in our power to make sure our governement stops allowing Islamic Cults in our colleges! PLEASE start writing all our government officials today! Unless you want to see these fanatics take over America!
The Significance of Women's Insignificance.......2006-04-09
This book is written well but what is descibed is sometimes very distressing and hard to take in. The focus today is very much on Islam and certainly, as far as Islamic fundamentalism is concerned, rightly so (not forgetting how the US helped the Taliban to power nor the dangers of Christian or other fundamentalisms).
We should not forget amidst all this that abhorrent attitudes towards and treatment of females extends to many countries throughout the world and was socially acceptable in all countries at some time in the past. What is so disturbing here is that in many of these countries women had been starting to enjoy greater self-determination but then everything went into reverse. It certainly shows how we should not take anything for granted.
No doubt many women in these countries are horrified by stories they will hear about treatment of women in the West - the sex industry, sexual violence, family breakdown etc. - and we should avoid allowing any of our leaders to use the ill treatment of women to gain our support for their own political ends. The lack of human rights for women has never been of real concern in international politics.
But these countries do seem particularly extremely masculine with women up against a very powerful and almost exclusively male presence outside of the home. It is hard not to see many women as subject to a real fear of men and of necessity submitting to whatever 'protection' obedience brings. The fact that sexual violence, exploitation etc is still rampant shows that women cannot win even when they do obey their men.
Of course, the real meaning of 'honor' here is male self-interest. The root of all types of control of females is sex/reproduction and this is what is blatant here. A daughter has only 'temporary guest membership' in her own family for her value is in the work and breeding she will do for her future in-laws. (In China and India this very same fact means death for many tens of millions of female fetuses and infants. In Africa the need for females to be obedient and marriageable has led to genital mutilation for many millions of females. There are countless examples of ways in which different cultures manage the exchange between male kin groups of females whose value lies in their breeding potential for 'others'.)
'Lack of hijab means lack of a man's manhood' states a poster in Iran, blatantly stating how it is all about how the man feels about himself. The weaker the woman the stronger he can appear.
This is a powerful book but once you have recovered from the emotions it throws up it would be prudent to put it in context of womens experiences in many countries and in womens history. At least it should make everyone think more warily about words such as 'honor' and 'protection' which can be so easily and disgracefully misused. We also should not forget that there are women in even the most dire circumstances who are incredibly courageous in making changes.
Most of all it is a reminder of a tribal past/mentality that is still very much alive and well and, as much as we may complain about our own lives, I certainly have experienced an overwhelming thankfulness that I was born in the time and place that I was.

A Rare Look into a Closed Society.......2007-03-03
Jan Goodwin's seminal study of the lot of women under Islam could not be more timely. Just recently (02 March 2007) a Sunni fundamentalist group abducted 18 Iraqis in retaliation for the reported rape of a Sunni woman by Shi`a police. Nouri al-Maliki has "investigated" and has denied the allegations. He also has released a U.S. medical report supposedly concluding the assault never occurred. A nurse has testified to the contrary, however, stating that she had seen signs of an assualt upon examination of the alleged victim.
Jan Goodwin documents that the practice of raping women in police custody is hardly new. In fact, it is but one of the indignities suffered by women living in Middle Eastern societies, and it is more common than one might think.
To be clear, the problem does not appear to be Islam but rather the cultural and societal structures in the Middle East. Jan Goodwin clearly lays out the details, the result of multiple interviews in several countries. Her investigative journalism is invaluable in illuminating the plight of women in the region, a condition carefully and almost totally hidden from the rest of the world.
For all who care about what is going on in the Middle East, and for all who care about the lot of women in Middle Eastern Muslim societies, this book is a must read.
Superb book .......2006-11-14
Having lived in the Middle East for over 20 years I was amazed at the author's accurate perception of the situation for women in this area. Not something that can be done without really understanding the people and culture. A great, intellectual, insighful read. Thank you Ms. Goodwin.
So little info here about this book.........2004-12-13
From back cover:
Surprised there is no editorial review on Amazon for this book, with Islam as in the news as it has been last 3 years in particular, and last decade before THAT milestone event, Everyone or a lot of people 'seeking to undertand' the religion/politic of the Islamic world and the dynamics and problems of the high-visability Islamic communities within the USA and Western Europe and places like Australia, I really am surprised arent more reviews, but here's the spiel on back-cover at least.
"" Muslim women, symbols of honour for their men, speak out in this timely and provocative book that takes us into the volatile heartland of Islam, the worlds fastest-growing religion. With a wide-range of telling, often horrific stories about the ways in which Muslim women are abused and oppressed by their menfolk, PRICE of HONOUR shows how restrictions on women act as a barometer for measuring both the growth of fundamentalism and the Muslim regimes' willingness to appease extremists. Informed, candid and honest, PRICE OF HONOUR is a controversial look inside Muslim society today, and a powerful wake-up call to the world. ""
Extremely well written and a real eye opener.......2004-03-16
I actually read this book before 9/11 and then re-read it after. It provides a perspective that no other medium has given because it details country by country the effects of Islamic life on women, some mainstream, some extreme but in all walks of life.
It should be a must read for all Americans so they can wake up to worlds outside of ours....in this case knowledge is not only power, it's required for living!! Thank you Jan Goodwin.
Book Description
Travis McGee is the strikingly handsome and ever resourceful invention of John D. MacDonald. Born in the author's imagination in 1964, McGee drifted into the world on a 52-foot diesel-powered houseboat, the Busted Flush, which he has used as a base of operations through many adventures.
In A TAN AND SANDY SILENCE, news of a former girlfriend's mysterious disappearance leads McGee to the West Indian island of Grenada. There he takes on a whirlwind plot of double-dealing, shady financing and shifting identities.

Read this one last, or near the end.......2007-03-22
I do not wish to write a review that says too much, spoiling it for a future reader. I just wanted to say that this one was a disappointment for me. This one was predictable, had Travis doing things that unpleasantly surprised me, and the ending was something cheap and quick. I never felt like I was "there" with him as I have in other books.
As far as being a tired effort from the end of MacDonald's career, "The Lonely Silver Rain" was written in 1985 and was much better in my mind. I would just save "A Tan and Sandy Silence" for later or last. Go through the ones that are just gold first.
from the Jimmy Buffett school of detective fiction.......2005-08-19
A colleague of mine left this book on my desk one day. Reading it made me wish he had left the hardbound version, since that way it would have hurt more when I threw it back at him!
It's a detective story, you see, featuring the inimitable Travis McGee, the beach bum cum gumshoe who appears in over a dozen MacDonald outings.
What can I say about this book? In one stroke, MacDonald has managed to outstrip Flaubert, Dostoevsky, and Joyce, making them all look like mewling infants.
Here's just a sample of MacDonald's deathless prose:
"And I suppose you had an affair with her."
"Gee, honey. I'd have to look it up."
I caught her fist about five inches from my eye. "You bahstid," she said. [p. 32]
Of course, MacDonald cannot be accused of being a superficial writer! Consider these penetrating philosophical musings:
"I own some Sears electric clippers with plastic gadgets of various shapes which fit on the clippers to keep you from accidentally peeling your hair off down to the sukull. I find that long hair is a damned nuisance on boats, on the beach, and in the water. So when it gets long enough to start to make me aware of it, I clipper it off, doing the sides in the mirror and the back by feel. The sun bleaches my hair and burns it and dries it out. And the salt water makes it feel stiff and look like some kind of Dynel. Were I going to keep it long, I would have to take care of it. That would mean tonics and lotions and special shampoos. That would mean brushing it and combing it a lot more than I do and somehow fastening it out of the way in a stiff breeze." [pp. 123-124]
But perhaps Travis, our hero, is at his most debonair when he's beating the snot out of recalicrant women:
"I smiled at her, pulling her a half-step closer and said, 'If you get loud and say nasty things, dear, if you get on my nerves, I can hold you like this, and I can take this free hand and make a big fist like this, and I can give you one little pop right here that will give you a nose three inches wide and a quarter inch high.'
'Please,' she said in a rusty little voice.
'You can get a job as a clown. Or you can see if you can find a surgeon willing to try to rebuild it.'" [p. 136]
In sum, if you're in the mood for sappy, incoherent, misogynistic, and, well, all-around cruddy fiction, you can't go wrong with the peerless Travis McGee!
(The author, John MacDonald, died in 1986, and therefore -- it tickles me to announce -- will not be inflicting any more of these books on us! God be praised!)
I just can't stop reading these things.......2002-09-13
Another Travis McGee book. This one seemed to take forever to get going, to set up the problem, and then as soon as you understood the problem, MacDonald popped you a good one, and the rest of the book was a catch-up from that moment. But that's the simple "mystery" of this McGee novel, and as such is never that special. The attraction of McGee, at least in these later books, are MacDonald's comments within them on the human condition, both specifically with regard to the Quixotish nature of McGee, as well as a general feeling of malaise which centers around money and violence. The McGee novels are as much about philosophy--ethics, particularly--as they are about mystery. Or maybe the point is that the philosophy is the mystery, and as we get to know McGee better, we understand more about his philosophy. I seem to remember the Spenser novels of Robert Parker to be similar to this as well. Are there other mystery series in which the character growth is as important, if not more so, than the particular story of the time?
Fun in the sun.......2002-03-15
Over the years I've read hundreds of novels in a variety of genres, but for pure fun and enjoyment it's hard to beat Travis McGee. Some of the books are better than others, but they're nearly all worth a couple of lazy summer days. They are the ultimate summer time, quick-read beach books. At their core, they're good mysteries. But Travis McGee is such a great character, with such a wry outlook on life, that often the mystery seems secondary to McGee's views on whatever topic author John D. McDonald has selected for his soap box. Most of them take place in Florida, (a Florida no one will ever see again given they were written mostly in the 60s and 70s) and all have a color in the title. Don't take them too seriously, just have fun in the sun.
A Bland and Silent Story.......2001-05-05
If this was your first Travis McGee book, don't worry. Most of them are much, much better. This book suffers from an overload of the author's rambling commentary on society. After the introduction to jealous husband, you have to slug through 100 pages before you begin to get into typical Travis McGee action. The action is often illogical, and too often Travis - err - Gavin stumbles into old friends at the most unlikely places, bailing him out of trouble. Sorry, this one just didn't click for me. In many ways, it reminded me of the Pale Gray for Guilt story, but there was much less action in this book.
Book Description
Having taken a young Chinese woman under her wing, teacher Emma Perotti finds herself on trial for the girl's murder.
Almost five years earlier, An-ling Huang walked into Emma's ESL classroom and into her family's life. Emma was drawn to the vulnerability she perceived in An-ling. An-ling, for her part, seemed to long for a surrogate mother and eagerly attached herself to Emma. Emma's husband, Tom, resented An-ling's intrusion and his wife's affection for her. Their son, Josh, developed his own relationship with her. Dredging up painful memories and buried grief, An-ling's presence threatened to tear the family apart.
Then An-ling is found dead, suffocated. As Emma's trial progresses, An-ling is revealed not to have been who she claimed, and we learn that the family members all have their own dark secrets.
Camilla Trinchieri was born in Prague to an Italian diplomat father and American mother and came to the United States at age twelve. After graduating from Barnard College, she moved to Italy. She returned to New York City in 1980 and earned an MFA in writing from Columbia University. As Trella Crespi and Camilla Crespi she has published seven mystery novels.

Psychological Thriller.......2007-08-05
A thoughtful beautifully told taut psychological novel with each of the characters drawing the reader into their innermost thoughts and secrets. All building up to a exciting ending. A must read - you'll definitely enjoy this book. Kathy F. New York City
Loved it!.......2007-07-05
From the moment I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down. The main characters made you genuinely care about them and want things to work out for this family. I loved the way the book went back and forth between the current day trial and the story of what led up to that point. Wonderful book!
What price truth??????.......2007-07-05
This is a very well written book with beautifully developed and layered
characters. It depicts a family who has suffered a great loss and how
each member is affected by and deals with it. As deception becomes the rule rather than the exception, and unintended consequenses of actions
build upon themselves, the author deftly creates a world of suspense and
drama. These are characters you remember.
An excuse to neglect all chores; read this book instead.......2007-06-27
From the first surprising page to its stunning denouement, I found this book engrossing, entertaining, and fascinating: Engrossing because I didn't want to put it down despite the fact I had other important things to do; entertaining in its rivetting story line and the unique manner of presentation; and fascinating in its complex depiction of a cast of characters who, on the one hand, are universal and, on the other, are intriguing and unknowable. What a great read!
A Gripping Story.......2007-06-23
I enjoyed this book enormously. It operated on several different levels; all of which meshed together beautifully.
On one hand it is a story of a family suffering from a great loss; and then again it is a murder trial. I loved the way it went back and forth between the trial and the people in the family all of whom perceived events in different ways. I also thought the relationship between the student and the teacher was beautifully drawn and showed the difficulties inherent in human relationships. The author's interest in Chinese culture was particulary fascinating. I think this is an author who has
created wonderful complex characters and a very strong plot.
I recommend it strongly. I could not put the book down.
