Pages starting to yellow
A school bus carrying eight deaf school-girls and their teachers brakes suddenly on a flat Kansas highway. They should never have stopped. Waiting for them are three heartless men just escaped from prison each with nothing to lose. And now, with the girls as their hostages, they have everything to gain. They make their stand in an abandoned slaughterhouse, and it is there that Lou Handy, a murderer and the convicts ringleader, announces his terms: to kill one captive an hour unless his demands are met.
What follows is a twelve-hour siege of noose-tight tension and a war of nerves between Handy and the FBIs senior hostage negotiator, Arthur Potter.
Dead Silence, based on A Maidens Grave, was made into a movie, starring James Garner and Marlee Matlin. It was filmed by HBO in 1997.
