Inspired by the brutal beating and murder of Kitty Genovese in Queens, New York, SILENT SCREAM opens with the savage rape of sixteen-year old Aiyana outside of the Southwark Philadelphia projects while onlookers gawked from their apartments without lifting a finger to defend her. Aiyana is impregnated by her rapist, and seventeen years later her daughter Nita suffers the same fate—gang-raped by three teens while project tenants looked on. SILENT SCREAM deals with the fate of those cowardly onlookers and the secret both Aiyana and Nita possess.

Three apparent suicides by co-eds at the same university seem tragic, but not particularly frightening—until the police receive a mysterious letter claiming responsibility for the deaths. Suddenly the police and the university are caught up in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse as they try to stop the killer before another innocent victim dies. Shanicha was born bad. She was born with no compassion, no remorse … completely heartless. Instead, she's become a brilliant puppet-master who plants the seeds of destruction, then sits back to watch the evil she has wrought. To Shanicha, other people are merely pawns in her cruel game … a game she plays to chilling perfection.

"When the peaceful and isolated land of the Shamra is invaded and its people enslaved, a young Shamra girl named Dara must lead a ragtag resistance to defeat their conquerors. Dara's quest is complicated by the Shamra's cultural opposition to women in leadership roles, her own self-doubts, and those of her followers. Venturing into uncarted territory to seek allies, Dara encounters unusual creatures and dangerous lands. Her rebellious spirit is the only hope the Shamra have to regain their freedom. Does she succeed? And at what cost?"--P. [4] of cover.
