Fifteen years ago, the three Hathaway brothers disappeared along the banks of the Mississippi river. The police ruled the brothers had drowned. Their mother believed otherwise. Investigative journalist, Alex Collier, is determined to reopen the case.
Dead Silence is one of the books where I can just sit down and read for hours. It is a mystious and thrilling book. I'm only 15 and I love the book. I recommed this book to anyone because it is so good!!!!
Dead Silence by Ron Handberg

This was an excellent book. I couldn't put it down...not only for the fast-paced action, but because it was based on a real crime that has never been solved. I cared about the characters, and was never disappointed in the story. I hope Mr. Handberg keeps writing, and uses Alex Collier as the investigator again.
Excellent Book

I thought that this was a great book. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. I was so into the book that I was able to read it all in one day. I enjoyed this book because it hit so close to home and made me realize what the people in the world will do to make themselves happy.
Excellent read!

Fabulous book! My test of a 5-star is that I can't stop reading a book.....until I get close to the end when I actually force myself to slow down...because I don't want it to be over! Dead Silence met that test. It also avoided gratuitous gore and violence which I appreciate. More, Ron Handberg, more!
Great Read! I hope Alex Collier is around for a long time!

As far as 'series' books go, the Alex Collier books are some of the best of the genre. Mr. Handberg makes Alex a real person and his knowledge of the Twin Cities certainly adds authenticity. The premise of Dead Silence is based on a real event that I remember vividly. Just like in the book, every once in awhile some journalist will attempt to do an update of this event. Maybe this book will inspire someone else to dig up some new facts of the story.At any rate, the book is a wonerful, 'hard-to-put-down' read. When you start it, curl up for the long run. You will have a hard time putting this one down.
