The Silent Women

A Danish homicide detective chases a terrifying serial rapist stalking a popular online dating website in this #1 international bestselling thriller.

"Crime-writer superstar Sara Blaedel's great skill is weaving a heartbreaking social history into an edge-of-your-chair thriller while at the same time creating a detective who's as emotionally rich and real as a close friend." —Oprah.com

An online flirtation can have horrific consequences, as Detective Louise Rick discovers when she is called to an idyllic Copenhagen neighborhood where a young woman has been left bound and gagged after a profoundly brutal rape attack.

Susanne Hansson met her rapist on a popular dating website. But the man is hiding behind a labyrinth of false pseudonyms, and neither Susanne—nor the police—have been able to trace his true identity. With the internet as his playground, the rapist will almost certainly strike again if Louise can't unmask him before it's too late...

Incredible suspense and a diabolical series of twists take Sara Blaedel's wildly popular series to new heights.
