I enjoyed the short story and the snapshot into the character's life after the main story!The characters were the best, as always and the Narrator remains at the top of her game!  Marguerite Gavin is such a splendid and pleasant Narrator to listen to, and I just HAVE to find more books that she reads after this!Overall, if you enjoy Karen Rose books, Broken Silence will be no different, other than you can get through it just a little more quickly that her other books!Would I Recommend this Book?Absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt!Standalone or Part of a Series?This book is Part of a SeriesRomantic Suspense #14.5Baltimore #3.5Disclaimer:I was provided this audio book by the Publisher, Blackstone Audio, Inc.,  courtesy of Audiobook Jukebox, in return for an honest, unbiased review.
