The Circle of Silence 1 Hidden in Plain Sight

Based on the Jeffrey Epstein case, which secretly implicated the elite of show business, finance, and politics, including princes and sultans, this novel unveils the various sordid and meticulously orchestrated mechanisms used by this organization to perpetrate its crimes in utmost secrecy.

Captivating and thrilling, this novel is strikingly realistic. Inspired by true events, it keeps us on the edge of our seats solely through suspense and plot twists, without resorting to the use of firearms.

After several months of research and interviews with specialists from Europol and Scotland Yard, the author immerses us in the powerful human trafficking network coordinated by Jeffrey Epstein.

He was able to hear confessions from young pimps who explained that they had been recruited to make certain people disappear, including incompetent smugglers who jeopardized the network’s security, and thus discover how they operated. The police were able to confirm that when they arrived at the homes of these “missing” individuals, they found a half-eaten meal still on the table, as if the missing people had gone to get something from their kitchen, but they were never found.

Such methods are chilling…

The novel finally reveals how this network managed to blend into our societies and become invisible. It is the only one to analyze in depth the true mechanisms employed by this organization to perpetuate its activities and conceal them perfectly, or almost perfectly…

Written well before the revelations by the U.S. Department of Justice, this novel quickly takes us to J. Epstein’s luxurious Parisian apartment, without explicitly stating his name. However, recent releases of official documents now allow us to confirm everything with certainty.

It received the best novel Grand Prix in Paris, awarded by the world-renowned author Paulo Coelho.

The novel is divided into two parts. The first volume establishes the atmosphere and develops the nuances of the characters to better immerse the reader in this dark world. The descriptions, sometimes very detailed, add a greater dimension and realism to the narrative. Agent Foster discovers, by chance, part of a network whose scope and power he could never have imagined.

In the second part, the tension and suspense intensify with each chapter. A ruthless duel against powerful enemies then begins…

What shocked the author most, he confided in an interview, was the degree of manipulation and violence among those protecting this network, whose sole purpose was to shield its prominent members from scandal.

PITCH

Young Special Services agent Clarke Foster is totally unprepared when a material witness commits suicide. A single detail passed on by the pimp-turned-informer plays on his mind, so he embarks on his own journey of discreet investigation, dodging his superiors’ unexplained attempts to block his path.

In this case, there are too many mysteries and, above all, too much silence…

Gradually he unravels the first tangled threads of a sinister network, quite unaware of the organization’s vast scope and influence. And how far its tentacles can reach, towards the most unlikely individuals. Foster’s actions are enough to create a tiny glitch, unbalancing the perfectly oiled cogs of a ruthless machine. However, his own competence as a lone agent is quickly outperformed, and he’s unlucky enough to be caught out.

And so a confrontation of wits and stratagems ensues, a merciless shadowy struggle against a cohort of enemies as implacable as they are invisible, where the slightest misstep signifies certain death for him and those close to him.

Coming from a mixed European and North American background, he’s a fervent defender of universality in all its forms, and he has always considered himself to be a citizen of the world. From his teenage years, teachers and classmates alike recognized and were fired up by his natural-born talent as a storyteller. His constant curiosity and indefatigable thirst for knowledge bring a multiplicity of dimensions to his novels. David Hepburn’s writing deftly combines the most up-to-date technology, social phenomena, psychological conflicts and suspense.

He first came to notice with “Circle of Silence”, in which his perfect mastery of the art of storytelling was awarded with a literary “Grand Prix” in Paris – France. “Circle of Silence” instantly made its mark on the thriller best-seller list.

Said Paul Coelho: “An new talented author has been discovered.”
