The Silver Road reminds me of a road near where I live, there is nothing on it and it goes for miles. I thought that this was a gripping read which I read very quickly. I enjoyed the tension that is created throughout. There are two stories running along side of each other which then intertwine to the grand conclusion. I have read other reviews of this book and some say that it is predictable in parts but didn’t find that at all. I was guessing till the end really. It is a very bleak book and the descriptions of the landscape give the impression of loneliness and despair. I really felt for Lelle who has been searching for his missing daughter for three years, the despair and determination of his character really shows. There are no chapters in this book which I think works very well it makes you want to keep reading and therefore you really feel the tension. All in all a good read.
