Synopsis

When three women are brutally murdered in four days, private detective John Duval, an ex-Lieutenant Commander in the Royal Navy and Naval Intelligence, finds himself the prime suspect in the police hunt for a sexual killer stalking the rain-grey naval city of Portsmouth during the Silent Hours - navy slang for the night period on a warship between ‘pipe down’ and ‘call the hands’ wherein the ship runs silent and dark...

Aware that he is their mark, Duval leads the police in a shadow-dance as he purports to pursue his own search for the allusive killer and, with the aid of psychiatrist Dr Catherine Benson, uncover the tortured psychology that is motivating the murders. But as his investigations progress and his involvement deepens, what emerges exponentially from those shadows are disturbing revelations of Duval’s own past.

Silent Hours: the murderer is different from other human beings in degree not in kind. http://www.gallerypictures.co.uk
