While Cher ignores the warning from workmate Dan that Michael is bad news, her friends have their own problems to fix. Sarah is longing to start a new life with a man who won’t commit, and bride-to-be Deb should be looking forward to her wedding, but her future mother-in-law is turning it into a nightmare from hell... If only her fiancé could see it that way.

I received a copy of this from Usborne in exchange for an honest review so thank you Usborne as I really did enjoy it! Then the body of a young woman is found dead by suffocation and Kim makes two chilling discoveries. The victim spent time at the clinic too, and her death was also staged to look like a suicide. And I also really like the relationship Inge has with Marta’s mother. But that was about all I really liked about the book. When three more prostitutes are murdered soon afterwards, it becomes apparent that this is the work of a deraged serial killer.When the fresh body of a youthful woman is however discovered there by D.I Kim Stone and her team, it becomes apparent that the killer found the perfect play to hide their crime. With only twenty-four hours to make every second of Steven’s interrogation count, and scan his behaviour for hidden clues, Kim and her team soon link Steven to the abduction of several vulnerable girls – two were kept for a year and then released, unharmed – but where are Melody and the others? I liked the plot twist (even though it’s horrid and hard to think about) that her parents used to work at the concentration camp that Wilf’s mother was killed at. Another cause lies in the desire of conservatives to defend the people who promoted the policy, many of whom also remain alive. The removal of part-Aboriginal children was advocated on the social Darwinist grounds that their full-blooded relatives were dying out. It was believed that the assimilation of these children into white society would ease the inevitable passing into extinction of the Aboriginal people. Nothing is better for an independent film than a healthy dose of government-sponsored controversy. The whiff of censorship provoked by official intervention lends a touch of rebel glamour without striking a penny from the marketing budget. For an indie struggling to arouse public interest, a politician weighing in to warn off the public is worth his weight in box-office receipts.

As the story of the baby’s abandonment takes an ominous turn, another young woman mysteriously vanishes. Not read any of your books Angela. And had no idea of you . I am a local girl and find it intriguing read of your scenario’s close by. My first read is Hidden scars . I certainly will be purchasing Silent Scream therefore following on from that . Easy to read so enjoyable. Please, keep these books coming. You have a new follower. Paired with the equally troubled Detective Travis, D.I Kim Stone discovers a sinister relationship between the families who own the land which has now become a crime scene.I honestly did not expect much from this book but I was proved wrong. It's a historical fiction set in Munich, Germany after the end of world war II. I don't know much about the history of this war, just a few basic things. This story basically helped me understand about how Jewish and Polish people were ill-treated by Hitler and even after the war there were discriminations as that kind of treatment towards them was continued. Making films about historical events is always risky, and the fine line between fact and fiction provided a rich source of ammunition for detractors. The objectors took particular delight in the moments when Olsen and Noyce departed from Pilkington's original story for the sake of drama, such as the harrowing sequence where the teenage girls are forcibly abducted from their families.

However, I thought it was a very well written book and thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a historical fiction book which explores the difficult topic of children who were stolen from their families in Poland and adopted in Germany. I thought it was well handled and would thoroughly recommend this book. Part of the anger, according to Olsen, comes down to the fact that, unlike the frontier massacres, the stolen generations affected people living today. "The reaction didn't surprise me at all," she says. "The film was dangerous to people because it is demonstrably true. The two oldest girls are still alive. The documentation about why they were taken is still complete." Angela Marsons did a wonderful job with both the protagonist and the supporting characters, both bad and good. The characters are quite unbelievable especially in the close but unromantic relationship between the Detective and her partner Bryant. A sinister air pervades the story creating perpetual tension for the reader. As the story progresses, your interest will not flag for a moment due to the twists and turns. As the sorting begins, more victims are discovered, with their bodies depicting unthinkable horrors.Set in Germany shortly after World War 2 this is a fascinating story of a young girl discovering that everything she knew about her life was a lie. As the chain of ominous secrets begins to unravel, the one teacher who could help solve the case is discovered dead.
