Resumen del Editor
Paranoid.
Psychotic.
Unstoppable.
Silence Jones sometimes finds himself in a battle with another assassin, but never before has he confronted one who has lost touch with reality.
As Carla Olmeda slaughters more and more members of Miami’s criminal underworld, the city reaches full hysteria. The longer Silence tracks the deadly assassin, the more he learns about her schizophrenic delusions. He has a decision to make: is Carla aware of her crimes, or is she truly insane?
Silence must figure it out fast. Even more assassins are creeping into Miami, and a bloodbath is ready to erupt.
The next standalone action thriller in the pulse-pounding new series. Enter the world of Silence Jones. Hold on tight…
If you like action heroes with the steely resolve of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, the calculating will of Gregg Hurwitz’s Orphan X, and the raw power of Mark Greaney’s Gray Man, then you’ll love Silence Jones.

Historia
Carter's a homicide cop in Titanshade, an oil boomtown where 8-tracks are state of the art, disco rules the radio, and all the best sorcerers wear designer labels. It's also a metropolis teetering on the edge of disaster. As its oil reserves run dry, the city's future hangs on a possible investment from the reclusive amphibians known as Squibs. But now negotiations have been derailed by the horrific murder of a Squib diplomat. The pressure's never been higher to make a quick arrest, even as Carter's investigation leads him into conflict with the city's elite.

Zeke is a bad guy. He didn’t choose to be. It’s just who he is. It’s who he has to be to survive in a post-apocalyptic world where trust is as scarce as water. He's got nobody. No family. No friends. And he left behind the woman he loved for her own good. But it's time to change. After a brush with death far out in the wasteland, he decides he's done risking his life to help his greedy bosses control who gets to drink water and when. Now, he's stranded in a bar in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by the perfect kind of ruffians who can help him go back and make things right.

Buckhead isn’t a place you live, it’s a place you survive. And that applies even to the wealthy housewives that have it all. Fancy cars, designer clothes, and daily salon appointments aren’t nearly enough to keep them fulfilled and happy.

A Thrill a minute
Carla Olmeda is a killing machine. Pure and simple. However, her mental state plays on Silence’s conscience as he tries to determine whether she is a willing and mentally stable killer or an unstable and unaware innocent killer. He has to figure it out quickly because the numbers of graphic deaths are building and his own may be next!
The author, Erik Carter excels at creating riveting and action-packed stories with likable characters and nail-biting plot twists. Carter’s dialogue is realistic and blends with the plot perfectly, keeping the story moving at a fast pace. Carter is methodical in his reveals and gives nothing away ahead of time.
The narrator, Gary Bennet, is Silence Jones! I love how he naturally slips this character on with each book with continuity and clarity. He allows us to see Silence’s growth as a character by using a voice that is reflective of this character’s personality. Silence has a scratchy voice that demonstrates his inability to speak due to an injury. Bennet projects an authentic-sounding voice that captures the rough and deadly essence of Silence. Although Bennet gives a unique sound to each of the characters, it is with Silence Jones that we see it the strongest as he is the main character in the series. Bennet’s delivery is spot on and allows the listener to be drawn into the drama and experience it.
This is a great thriller series that I would highly recommend. It is not only entertaining but edge-of-your-seat action as well!

Another Enjoyable Silence Story
4.25 out of 5 stars
Speechless is the sixth book in the Silence Jones Action Thrillers series, and what a sixth book it was. I do like that Carter spends a few moments talking about how Silence got to be the current version of himself that he is. But going this deep into a series, you’ll have some moments you’ll miss if you haven’t read the other books, but I think Carter does a good job keeping those to a minimum.
This one was all over the place in a good way. Carter kept me guessing, especially with a character as unpredictable as Carla. I also want to give props to Bennett because reading the name “Carla Olmeda” is likely right on the razor’s edge of being a tongue twister. I think he nailed the performance, and as always, I love hearing him as Silence. He can pull off that scary/gravely tone without making it hard to listen to.
The focus of Silence in this one is Carla, but along the way, he ends up being given another assignment that seems to distract him numerous times. I wasn’t sure how I would feel about that playing out, but I ended up liking it a lot. It was a change of pace for these books, but having someone there instead of him acting alone made a few of the scenes even more intense.
Overall, I thought that this was another excellent Silence story. A bit different from the other five, but not in any way that made me want to stop reading at all. I want to know all of the cases that Silence gets into.

Silence is Justice for all
“Speechless”, the sixth book in the Silence Jones Action Thriller series, continues to deliver on the success of its previous in the series which all include plenty of action, loads of excitement, and a high amount of intrigue while still making this one feel both unique and innovative. The story of Silence continues to be refined and molded by author Erik Carter while the audiobook’s narration by Gary Bennett is always welcomed for this series, and others. The story of Silence continues to expand as he continues to get into more and more difficult situations in the hopes of paying off his debt to the Watcher society while bringing justice to those who cannot get it themselves. If you are one who gravitates to the action thriller genre, I can say that you will have quite a bit to consume if you have not yet picked up any of the audiobooks in this series. If you have listened to any of the previous ones, I recommend you pick up this one as well, it delivers on all fronts.
As with many in the series, this one opens with a rather graphic scene of murder. Right away the author drops the listener off in this world filled with assassins and various Cuban cartels all waring against one another. We do have some new players in this game of cat and mouse along with many new characters attempting to put a stop to Silence himself. The story’s opening is even a bit comical (as much as murder can be) where multiple assassins are all vying for the same target, and none wants to be one upped by the others for the prize money. Here we get a view into the family cartels working out of Cuba and their activity which spills out into parts of the United States. We begin to see how many are involved in the Watcher program and how some of these agents need to work together to solve the main issue. We are introduced to Stiletto, The Rogue, The Blade, and The Shadow throughout the course of the story, many more then previous stories. We also see how much of an art murder can be in the hands of these people.
The author does a good job of always providing enough detail and background on Silence so that each of the audiobooks in the series could be listened to individually. However, I would recommend you listen to them in order, as you will gain some much more detail that way. I find the author weaving in detail relating to Ceci and her many words of wisdom, but here we also see Silence’s loving and caring side during these events as well. What may at first seem like a robotic killing machine because he must, really is juxtaposed to his caring and focus upon justice for those who cannot get it in the regular ways. I did long for conversations with his neighbor from earlier books, but for this story Silence was away from his past residence.
The audiobook’s narration over the six so far in the series is exceptionally done by Gary Bennett. He fills the role of Silence so well, and as the series has progressed, we have been able to hear more from Silence himself. I cannot think of just how hard it is to narrate that gravelly voice as you can feel the pain every time he speaks. I could not imagine another picking up the narration for this series because the characters are so well ingrained that changing things would upset the series too much. All of Mr. Bennett’s works are professional and audio is of the highest quality, this audiobook is no exception.
For parents and younger listeners, as with all the previous audiobooks in this series, this one contains profanity, drug use, and rather graphic violence. It is not intended to be listened to by younger audiences. I would recommend the series for more mature listeners or adults only. The story is good, but the subject matter may not be appropriate for younger ears.
In summary, this was a welcomed addition to the series and Silence continues to deliver on the action and suspense. The author keeps the characters consistent yet fluid in their actions keeping the listener on their toes. I enjoyed the wonderful narration and just how it brings you into the story with a smooth pace yet is often interrupted when Silence himself speaks. I laugh every time I hear someone say “talk” as this makes me think of our main character from this series. I recommend you give it a listen!
