In SILENT
JOE, Joe Trona, a man scarred in
more ways than one, investigates his adopted father’s
death and confronts his own haunting past. “In crime
fiction, it often seems to be the world-weary detective,
going into the world to do battle. But I thought,
hell, why not write someone young and fresh and
full of strength and innocence? So I came up with
Joe…. It's a very different book for me.” —T. Jefferson
