Broken Screams by Sally Rigby
Scream all you want, no one can hear you….

Calling on forensic psychologist Dr Georgina Cavendish to help, they follow the clues and are alarmed to discover the victims all had one thing in common. Their birthdays were on the 29th February. The same date as a female officer on Whitney’s team.
As the clock ticks down and they’re no nearer to finding the truth, can they stop the villain before he makes sure his next victim will never scream again.
Broken Screams is the twelfth book in the acclaimed Cavendish & Walker series.
My Review
This will be my fifth Sally Rigby blog tour! Sally is one of my favourite crime fiction authors featuring one of my favourite duos – Cavendish and Walker. As I’ve said before, you know it’s going to be short, sharp, pacy detective fiction at its best.
This time we have a serious sexual assault in the park. The victim was not only raped, she was punched in the face, threatened and a leather glove pushed over her mouth. She also had marks around her neck as if someone had attempted to strangle her. She managed to get away, but the next victim might not be so lucky.
It turns out though, that she was one of a string of victims, over a period of eighteen months, each one getting more violent. All of them were born on the 29th February, the only link between them. Will the rapist strike again and who will be the next victim? Police Officer Meena Singh, who recently joined Whitney’s team, shares the same birthday. Could she be on his ‘list’?
Detective Chief Inspector Whitney Walker and forensic psychologist Dr Georgina Cavendish could have only days before the killer strikes again, but where do they even start. No witnesses, no motive and no DNA. It’s going to be a nightmare to solve but that has never stopped them in the past.
Another rollicking good ride from this author, hopefully there will be lots more to come. And when are we going to see them on TV please?
Many thanks to @zooloo2008 for inviting me to be part of this blog tour.
