Five figures gather round a shallow grave. They had all taken turns to dig. An adult-sized hole would have taken longer. An innocent life had been taken, but the pact had been made. Their secrets would be buried, bound in blood...

Years later, a headmistress is found strangled, the first in a spate of gruesome murders which shock the Black Country. But when human remains are discovered at a former children's home, disturbing secrets are also unearthed.

Detective Kim Stone fast realises she's on the hunt for a twisted individual whose killing spree spans decades. As the body count rises, Kim needs to stop the murderer before they strike again. But to catch the killer, can Kim confront the demons of her own past before it's too late?

An absolutely gripping, darkly compelling, and nail-bitingly tense mystery thriller that will keep you racing through the pages long into the night. A Kindle Chart #1, multi-million-copy, international bestseller, Silent Scream turns fans of Karin Slaughter, Val McDermid and Mark Billingham into Angela Marsons addicts.

Praise for Silent Scream:

'Angela Marsons is a keen observer of human nature, and her wide cast of characters are both fascinating and distinct from each other... it is immediately clear why her books stand out from the crowd. Chilling and compelling plots, brilliant characterisation... addictive from start to finish.' Rachel Abbott, bestselling author of the Stephanie King series
