About this ebook

‘A BRILLIANT edge of your seat book’ 5 stars, Netgalley reviewer

When Detective Felicity Springer is reported missing, the countdown to find her begins...

On her way home from a police training conference, Felicity notices something odd about the white van in front of her. A hand has punched through the car’s rear light and is frantically waving, trying to catch her attention.

Felicity dials 999 and calls it in. But whilst on the phone, she loses control of the car on the icy road, crashing straight into the vehicle ahead.

Pinned in the seat and unable to move, cold air suddenly hits her face. Someone has opened the passenger door... and they have a gun.

With Felicity missing and no knowledge of whether she is dead or alive, DS Nikki Parekh and DC Sajid Malik race to find their friend and colleague.

But Felicity was harbouring a terrible secret, and with her life now hanging in the balance, Nikki can only hope that someone will come forward and break the silence...

The next gripping crime thriller in the D.S. Nikki Parekh series, for fans of Angela Marsons and L.J. Ross!

Driving home after leaving a conference early, DS Felicity Springer, happens to notice something strange about the van in front of her. A hand has pushed through the van's rear light and is waving, obviously trying to get her attention. She places a 999 call and crashes into the van when her phone drops to the floor. DS Nikki Parekh and DC Sajid Malik race to find their friend colleague. They find her car ... empty. Her purse is there ... along with some blood. Where did she go? Who took her? Why? What Parekh and Malik learn when investigating is that Felicity was harboring a terrible secret. And no one is talking .... This is a well written crime fiction spotlighting DI Parekh and her colleague, DC Malik. Having recently been apprised that she has temporarily been promoted to DI, she's not happy. In fact, she's surly, a bit resentful, and she's even a tad upset over having to investigate whatever has happened to DS Springer. They aren't friends .. and probably never will be. Malik is the one who tries to keep her focused, to try to keep her manageable. There's lot of action with some surprising twists and turns along the way to an unexpected explosive conclusion. Although 2nd in the series, I do recommend reading them in order, although this one reads easily as a stand alone. I look forward to seeing more of this series. Many thanks to the author / HQ Digital / Netgalley for the digital copy of BROKEN SILENCE. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

This book is fast paced and kept me reading into the small hours. A real page turner. The theme appears to be well researched and, although harrowing in some parts, tells an important story. I honestly thought I had it all figured out right up to the end, did not see the twist coming. Can't wait for the next installment.
