The Devil's Silence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798267519915)

A murdered child. A surviving twin. A father who says he was saving them.

Thirteen years ago, ten-year-old Noelle Rivera was found dead in the bed of a chemical-soaked pickup truck. Her twin brother, Malik, was barely alive in the front seat.

Their adoptive father, Elias Rivera, has been behind bars ever since.

Now, after more than a decade of delays, his trial is finally about to begin. But first, the court must answer one haunting question:

Is Elias competent to stand trial-or is he too far gone to face what he did?

Inside the courtroom, forensic psychologists battle over his sanity. Outside, a crumbling child welfare agency faces exposure after leaked files reveal how the system failed both children long before the murder.

Malik has never spoken publicly about what happened that night. Until now.

As testimonies unravel, secrets collide, and new evidence surfaces, one terrifying truth becomes clear:

Sometimes, the worst kind of silence is the kind that's been waiting to speak.
