Assistant State Attorney Daphne Montgomery is on medical leave after being kidnapped, and then rescued by Baltimore Special Agent Joseph Carter. When a friend who is involved in 'equine therapy' ropes Daphne in to help bring Lana out of her shell; she discovers a tragic mystery to be solved. Seems Lana's parents had been quite rich, and the motive was to kill them for some very expensive jewelry that the killers now can't find; but think that Lana knows where it is hidden.

BROKEN SILENCE is a haunting, intriguing story. It is basically an epilog to Daphne and Joseph's story from Did You Miss Me? (Romantic Suspense, #14); but for such a short story, Karen Rose wrote a satisfying and well-rounded novella. My only real complaint was that I probably would have enjoyed the story more had I read their book. There were too many things thrown at the reader that tied the story too tightly to Did You Miss Me to be a true standalone read.
