Publisher Description
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.
Watch out for more from Detective Kim Stone.
A detective hiding dark secrets, Kim Stone will stop at nothing to protect the innocent. Silent Scream is the first book in the series.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
When a pair of murders is connected to an abandoned children’s home, disturbing secrets come to light. Battling buried traumas of her own, and seeing direct parallels between the victims and her own past, DI Kim Stone must uncover the motive and killer before the death toll climbs. The first of more than a dozen books in Marsons’ popular Kim Stone series, Silent Scream introduces readers to the deeply flawed and short-tempered detective. The Black Country of England’s West Midlands looms large as a sinister setting, in a visceral police thriller that layers the atmospheric tension—with a succession of meaty twists you won’t see coming.
