About this deal

A permit is granted to excavate a field beside an old children's home, leading to human remains being discovered and old employees suddenly picked off one by one. In my case it’s actually less than that as I only read Silent Scream last February, prompted to look the series up after reading an article with Angela Marsons in The Express and Star that showed up on Twitter shortly after she had sold one million copies of her books. A haunting prologue sees a group of five amid the bleak and unremitting landscape of the Black Country making a silent pact as a body is buried in 2004. Completely mind-blowing … I devoured this book in 24 hour s and was sad to have finished it… I couldn’t put it down.

Twists and turns galore, with a dark and unstoppable force hidden behind them, it truly was a book that had the power to raise goosebumps on your skin. Il fascino di un thriller sta nell’arrivare gradualmente a una conclusione, sta nel seguire passo per passo i ragionamenti dei detective, sta nel vedere come un indizio o un’intuizione si evolvano portando a una pista. The chapters alternated with present day Every time I read a book by this author I feel that it's her best yet and A Daughter's Courage is no different. She is left with scars, including minimal social skills, yet she has a deep burning desire to come to the aid of suffering innocents.Like the rest of her team, he is loyal and stands up for her when the higher-ups would have her removed from the case. The chapters alternated with present day moments and to strong, independent women facing today's problems. Her report card invariably read "Angela would do well if she minded her own business as well as she minds other people's".

Combining a gripping plot with a lightening fast pace, a wonderful sense of place and some sparky characters who stay with readers, this is nigh on perfection and the added empathy of Angela Marsons is the icing on the cake! No glorification or graphic detail, just a bit by bit reveal, reflective of the way that Kim herself chooses to remember and manage the trauma in her own mind.one of the best crime thrillers I’ve read in a long time, and that includes… authors such as James Patterson! She is disconnected from her emotions and avoids complicated relationships or opening up to people, including her only ‘friend’ DS Bryant. Therefore, I decided that despite my lengthy TBR, I would read the series in its entirety, one title every month. The reason I know that people will love Kim Stone is because she is not a hearts and flowers kind of gal.

You will get a fraction of what drives her character in this book, including her traumatic past, which is given to you piecemeal throughout. With murders and crime and suspects, it truly was one hell of a ride that has only left me wanting to read Angela's next book in the series ASAP! Angela Marsons is the USA Today bestselling author of the Detective Kim Stone series, and her books have sold more than four million copies and have been translated into twenty-seven languages.The excitement in a thriller is to gradually get at a conclusion, it’s to monitor the detective’s deductions, it’s to see how a clue or idea become a lead. Years later, a headmistress is found strangled, the first in a spate of gruesome murders which shock the Black Country. There is lots of action, we open in 2004 with five adults around a grave, burying an innocent, binding them all together with a horrific secret. I am a hardened crime and horror reader, so hardened to difficult and gory moments, yet scenes in this book, whilst not graphic still disturbed me hugely. We begin with a creepy prologue where five people have jointly dug a grave for someone and have agreed to keep it secret.

This one is one of the best crime thrillers I've read in a long time , and that includes mainstream authors such as James Patterson! The linking factor between the two is that both victims were former staff at Crestwood, a home for abandoned, unwanted, and troubled children. A pesar de un carácter frío, sarcástico y a veces irascible, tiene algo en común con las niñas que le permite empatizar con ellas y potencia la carga emotiva, la desesperación y el deseo de descubrir lo que ocurrió en el pasado. Tralasciando le modalità di quasi tutti i delitti (sarebbe come sparare sulla Croce Rossa), ma possibile che per l’intero libro Kim e i suoi collaboratori non formulino mai uno straccio di ipotesi su chi possa essere il killer? I. Kim Stone, assigned to the case is on the hunt for a killer who’s been active for years, but in doing so she will have to come to terms with her own past.I noticed this series was very popular on Goodreads, so naturally, I had to see why everyone was so keen on it… well now I know! Wow … fantastic … gripping … hooks you in from chapter one … you won't want to put it down once you start. The killer’s “confessions” seem to be in the book just to prove that Kim is always right (which mean, the author gives us all the pieces of the puzzle and she also puts them together.
