Silence Below

His pregnant wife and two young daughters are savagely murdered-one with a message carved into her chest: "I punish the beautiful." Grief doesn't break Ethan. It births something far worse.As the system stalls, Ethan vanishes from the force and descends into a private war-hunting a ritualistic killer who uses knives like scripture and flesh like parchment. With the help of a disgraced doctor and a once-virtuous partner now seduced by darkness, Ethan builds a torture den beneath his home... and begins a campaign of righteous brutality.But vengeance has a price. As his victims scream, Ethan doesn't flinch-he listens. And when the killer's tongue is finally torn out, it's not closure Ethan finds... it's awakening.From rain-soaked alleyways to blood-soaked confessionals, Silence Below is a gritty, psychological descent into vengeance, obsession, and the horrors we justify in the name of love. Perfect for fans of True Detective, The Punisher, and Silence of the Lambs, this thriller will drag you into the dark-and dare you to stay.
