Two items in Jenny Aldred's morning local paper open a whole new world for her; a world in which murder, and a young boy's terror entirely encompass her. Joggers discover five-year-old Mark wandering along the trail beside the Niagara River. He's wearing pyjamas, and clutching a teddy bear. He cannot, or will not, speak. A young woman's body is found at the base of the tower near the river. There is a connection, and it takes all of Jenny's determination, and Staff Sergeant William Janes's sleuthing skills to uncover the answers to several mysteries in this second murder novel by Verna Reid. MURDER HAS NO TONGUE has the sights and sounds of Niagara for its setting. It is a fast-paced story of devotion, love of a different kind, and finally, stark terror.
