    Welcome to Westport, where the wild beauty of Ireland’s western coast hides deadly secrets… 
     
    Reeling from a devastating breakup, landscape gardener Ali Brennan escapes to the small coastal town of Westport, hoping its rugged shoreline and quiet rhythms will help her rebuild her life. But peace is short-lived when wealthy landowner John Clifford-Murphy is found dead on a remote island in Clew Bay – alone, and inexplicably without his phone or vital medication. 
    The local Gardaí are quick to rule the death an accident. Ali isn’t so sure… especially when Clifford-Murphy’s widow begs her to look more closely. Joined by her enthusiastic college-dropout nephew, Gav, Ali begins to ask questions the tight-knit community would rather leave unanswered. And when her ex-boyfriend, Detective Aidan Cahill, turns up to inform her that her life is under threat, Ali is forced to confront the past she thought she’d left behind. 
     
    As secrets surface, the danger escalates. When Ali herself becomes a target – waking terrified and alone on the shores of nearby Lake Doo Lough – it’s clear the investigation has drawn her into something far darker than she ever imagined. Can Ali uncover the truth before the killer strikes again? 
     
    Perfect for fans of Emylia Hall, LJ Ross and Carlene O’Connor.

    Power is the deadliest weapon of all.
    When a U.S. nuclear submarine disappears in the North Atlantic, the President wastes no time declaring a national emergency. Rights are suspended. Fear is weaponized. The nation is told the crisis is unavoidable—and necessary.
    But aboard the missing submarine, Commander Darius McCann and ship superintendent Amy Russell uncover a chilling truth. The mission has been manipulated. Orders don't align. And the supposed threat bearing down on American soil appears carefully engineered rather than accidental.
    As panic grips the country, two NCIS investigators on land begin pulling at threads the administration insists must remain buried. What they discover points not to an external enemy, but to a President willing to manufacture catastrophe to consolidate power, silence opposition, and extend his control at any cost.
    With millions of lives hanging in the balance, McCann and Russell are forced into an impossible choice: expose the truth and risk plunging the nation into chaos—or remain silent and allow a corrupt leader to reshape America through fear.
    Set against the claustrophobic tension of a submerged battlefield and the ruthless machinations of the White House, Silent Waters is a gripping political techno-thriller about deception, power, and how easily democracy can be drowned when lies rise to the surface.
