Film star Amanda Delany has the world at her feet. Never one
for the quiet life, she has had a string of affairs with the
hottest actors around. Then, coming home late from a night
shoot, Amanda puts the key in her front door for the very
last time. The next morning, Amanda's body is found, stabbed
many times, only her beautiful face left unharmed. DI Anna
Travis is ordered to the team assigned to the Delany murder,
headed by Anna's former lover, the demanding DCI James
Langton. Anna is shocked by the truth behind Amanda's public
image: her addictions to drugs and starvation diets; her
cold, unemotional parents; her elusive film agent; and the
former lovers so quick to distance themselves. But Anna has
challenges of her own to overcome too. Promotion to Chief
Inspector is within her grasp, but when the time comes for
her to stand before the board, she faces a shocking
accusation of personal misconduct. With insider authenticity
derived from La Plante's years in the film world and a
heroine worthy of her predecessor, Prime Suspect's Jane
Tennison, Silent Scream is La Plante's best yet.
