Every morning at 11 a.m., June reports a murder. Every morning, the victim is still alive. Until one day, June is dead...

After a traumatic tour in the Middle East, former soldier Daniel "Uneasy" Truce returns home carrying more than scars. He has PTSD. He has secrets. And he has an unnerving talent for reading people - spotting the tells, the hesitations, the lies. A few reluctant handshakes later, Truce finds himself in a misfit investigations unit, where his commanding officer considers him unstable and assigns him the jobs no one else wants. That's how he ends up dealing with June - the elderly woman the station dismisses as a nuisance. At exactly 11 a.m. every day, she walks in to report the same murder. The police have checked. The supposed victim is alive and well. Case closed - or so they think. But when June is suddenly killed in a hit-and-run, Truce can't shake the feeling that something doesn't add up. If there was no murder, why silence her? And if there was... who's next?

Dark, tense and sharply observed, Only the Dead Know introduces a haunted, socially awkward investigator with a rare gift - and a dangerous need for the truth. The audiobook is performed by Rupert Graves, beloved for his role in the BBC's "Sherlock". Graves brings gravitas, nuance and emotional depth to Truce's fractured inner world, capturing both the brittle tension and the quiet intelligence of this compelling new detective. The first instalment in the Daniel "Uneasy" Truce Mystery series, this is a gripping start to a crime series with psychological edge.
