Summary

Charlotte Graham is at the center of the most famous kidnapping in Chicago history.

The FBI and local cops found her two abductors, killed them, and rescued her, but it took four long years. The fact that she was found just three miles from her home, had been there the entire time, haunts them. She’s since changed her identity, found a profession she loves, and rebuilt her life.

She’s never said a word — to the cops, to her doctors, to her family — about those four years.

A family legacy has brought her back to Chicago, where a reporter is writing a book about the kidnapping. Her options are limited: Either hope the reporter doesn’t uncover the full truth, or break her silence about what happened. And her silence is what has protected her family for years.

Bryce Bishop doesn’t know Charlotte’s past; he only knows she has coins to sell from her grandfather’s estate — and that the FBI director in Chicago made the introduction. The more he gets to know Charlotte, the more interested he becomes, an interest encouraged by those closest to her. But she’s decided she is single for life, she struggles with her faith, and she’s willing to forgo a huge inheritance to keep her privacy. She’s not giving him much of an opening to work with.

Charlotte wants to trust him. She needs to tell him what happened. Because a crime the cops thought was solved has only opened another chapter…

Dull and hard to relate to

I really liked Henderson's early works, but this is the third (and likely last) attempt of reading her newer works. I don't know what has happened to the author, but all the spark has gone out of the stories and characters. I really struggled to care about the outcome and the "romance" in these newer works feels much more like an obsession with the idea of marriage than a natural progression of a relationship between the characters. I also found the super wealthy aspects of the story a real turn off. The narrator was fine.

Definitely different

What made the experience of listening to Unspoken the most enjoyable?

I never knew in which direction the story was going, kept me interested.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The main character, he was the MOST patient man EVER!! He really cared for the female lead.

Any additional comments?

Be patient with this one, it takes a while to get going, all that talk about coins!! It's worth it.

An arranged marriage, but not the regular sort.

Henderson's usual well drawn characters and an intricately crafted storyline, introducing the first of the Bishop brothers, of an inconvenient legacy and dealing with the prologue's aftermath. The Falcons choose a cold case that twines through until they intersect, unexpectedly (except we knew they would) and dramatically, in that gently paced fashion Henderson does so well.
Well read, but not his best work. I've still listened to this several times and will do again.

Wonderful!

Great read, multifaceted and wonderful story. Can hardly wait for Dee Henderson's NEXT release. Loved their heart for giving, too!
