Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell is a novella about 18,000 words in length[1] by Brandon Sanderson in the Dangerous Women Anthology edited by George R.R. Martin and Gardner Duzois which was released on December 3, 2013.[2][3]

Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell is a cosmere story, but it is uncertain whether or not Hoid will make an appearance. Brandon Sanderson has stated that Hoid does not appear,[4] but his assistant, Peter Ahlstrom, believes that he does.[5] If Hoid does make an appearance, it will be even briefer than his cameo in The Alloy of Law.[1] The story takes place on a relatively unimportant Shardworld known as Threnody.[4]

The main character of Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell is a dangerous woman, in keeping with the anthology's theme, in the company of other dangerous women.[1]

A excerpt was released on Tor's website.

Summary

Silence Montane, the proprietress of a rest stop in the Forests of Hell, and acts as a bounty hunter for the forts. She hunts and kills Chesterton Divide and his crew, but then Red Young steals the body. It turns out that Theopolis, Silence's handler, has hired Red to remove Silence, so Silence kills them all and uses Theopolis as a scapegoat.
