Ripped from today’s headlines, Conspiracy of Silence is a controversial thriller that dares to ask the question: How far will the Catholic Church go to cover up its own corruption? Set in modern-day Ireland, Conspiracy of Silence begins with two seemingly unrelated events the unexpected suicide of beloved and well-respected Father Frank Sweeney, and the expulsion of idealistic young Seminary student Daniel McLaughlin. Local investigative reporter David Foley aggressively pursues the two stories, and begins to uncover a deadly secret that links both incidents and leads directly up to the highest ranks of the Church.
