Splinter the Silence
Synopsis
Outspoken women who've drawn torrents of vicious threats online have started to silence themselves, one after another, in a series of high-profile suicides. Psychological profiler Tony Hill isn't convinced they're suicides at all, but he's alone in that belief until former detective Carol Jordan, rebuilding her life and her career, gets an unexpected second chance to lead a newly formed investigative unit. Together, they pursue the theory that the online "virtual violence" hides something far more calculated: a killer targeting women who dared to speak up.
