Detective Rebecca Montgomery wants to be part of the investigation into the disappearance of her sister, Danielle, but she's too close to the victim to be included. Instead, Rebecca is investigating a body found behind a wall in a theater following a fire. She starts scanning the area for the arsonist, knowing that they usually hang around to watch. A mysterious man gets her attention. When he walks away from the scene, she follows. He stops at an outdoor restaurant, fully expecting Rebecca to join him. Intrigued but still in police mode, Rebecca interrogates him. He knows a lot about her, even how she takes her coffee. He insists she do her homework if she wants to know about him. Rebecca is intrigued and turned on by the Latino hunk. His name is Diego Galvan.

When other San Antonio women start disappearing and the FBI gets involved, they want Rebecca out of the way. Her boss puts her on vacation leave, knowing that Rebecca will continue to search for her sister's killer. Her investigation leads her to Hunter Cavanaugh, who at one time owned the theater that was set on fire.

Rebecca sets up an interview with Mr. Cavanaugh. She's surprised that Diego works for Cavanaugh. She gets the brush-off and her instincts tell her something is not right with Cavanaugh. Rebecca is a determined woman. Her life has not been the same since her sister disappeared. She will not give up until she finds the answers.

Ready for a new life, Diego is drawn to Rebecca. He starts to leave roses at her window. However, someone notices he's making nice with the cop and a devious plan is put into motion. Rebecca is kidnapped and learns of the vile, despicable things that men are doing to the young women who've disappeared. Her life is about to be snuffed out when Diego tries to save her. The trap has been set and the intended snared.

Jordan Dane's debut romantic suspense, NO ONE HEARD HER SCREAM, is well-written, chilling and definitely a book to read.

SUMMARY

A relentless detective with the San Antonio Police Department is barred from an investigation into the disappearance and murder of her younger sister and forced to take another assignment. Skeletal remains buried in the wall of an old theatre destroyed by arson make an intriguing new case. But when the bones turn out to be of a woman, close in age to her sister, the hunt for a killer gets personal—a vendetta for justice.

A seductive enforcer to the mob, with secrets of his own, stands between the detective and a powerful man she believes is linked to the murder. Will the reluctant henchman become an ally or betray her to his treacherous 'benefactor'? Drawn into the sinister world of human trafficking, the modern-day slave trade, the detective unravels a grim trail of destroyed lives—leaving her little hope for vindication in the death of her sister and a nameless young woman buried alive.
