PositiveWashington Independent Review of BooksWhite Hot Silence was a pleasant surprise ... In this book, the adventure took me from Calabria across the Mediterranean to Estonia and, finally, to Russia. Even though I suffered jet lag and sea sickness, Henry Porter’s international espionage yarn was worth it ... The author does an excellent job with his characters ... But what really makes the novel work is the author’s excellent pacing. I never felt bogged down by descriptions of remote places, and the combination of plot-expanding dialogue and necessary action made this a compelling read.
