When an attempted assassination sparks a chain reaction of explosive events across London, Britain's elite security forces seem powerless to stop the chaos in Tony Kent's Killer Intent.Īs the deadly conspiracy unfolds, three strangers find their fates entwined: Joe Dempsey, a deadly military intelligence officer Sarah Truman, a CNN reporter determined to get her headline and Michael Devlin, a Belfast-born criminal barrister with a secret past.
Or so she thinks.įor inside her new home lies a locked room, within which lies a two-hundred-year-old diary and a deeply unsettling painted wooden figure – a Silent Companion – that bears a striking resemblance to Elsie herself. With her new servants resentful and the local villagers actively hostile, Elsie only has her husband's awkward cousin for company. Newly married, newly widowed, Elsie is sent to see out her pregnancy at her late husband's crumbling country estate in The Silent Companions. But it turns out (the twist!) that Kathy cheated six years ago - with Gabriel, Alicia’s husband - and it was then that Theo, the true psychopath, broke into Alicia’s house, held her captive and exposed the affair, triggering a long-dormant trauma that incites her to shoot Gabriel in the face.Week seven and eight: The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell and Killer Intent by Tony Kent (Shady men, each with motive … dun dun dun.) Theo’s narration about his actress wife, Kathy - who he discovers is cheating on him - is intercut as though concurrent with Alicia’s treatment. (We hear her perspective through diary entries, oddly presented with back-and-forth dialogue, like no journal I have ever seen.) Theo embarks on desperate investigations into Alicia’s life, insisting on meetings with her jealous gallerist Jean-Felix, her spurned brother-in-law Max and her semi-estranged, debt-riddled cousin Paul. Theo, who spent two decades in therapy exploring trauma induced by a cruel father, is hopelessly compelled toward Alicia, who suffered a similar upbringing and is desperate to make her start talking about her crime. After the murder, she stops speaking entirely and is placed in the Grove, a secure psychiatric unit where Theo applies for a job six years later - expressly to meet, and treat, the still-silent Alicia. London-based psychotherapist Theo Farber becomes obsessed with Alicia Berenson, a rising-star painter who’s convicted of murdering her fashion-photographer husband Gabriel.
