Synopsis:

In the past. . .home to the tragically destroyed Great Exhibition, a solitary thirteen-year-old boy meets his next-door neighbor, a recently widowed young teacher hoping to make a new start in the tight-knit South London community. Drawn together by loneliness, the unlikely pair forms a deep connection that ends in a shattering act of betrayal.

In the present. . .On a cold January morning in London, Detective Inspector Gemma James is back on the job while her husband, Detective Superintendent Duncan Kincaid, is at home caring for their three-year-old foster daughter. Assigned to lead a Murder Investigation Team in South London, she's assisted by her trusted colleague, newly promoted Detective Sergeant Melody Talbot. Their first case: a crime scene at a seedy hotel in Crystal Palace. The victim: a well-respected barrister, found naked, trussed, and apparently strangled. Is it an unsavory accident or murder? In either case, he was not alone, and Gemma's team must find his companion—a search that takes them into unexpected corners and forces them to contemplate unsettling truths about the weaknesses and passions that lead to murder. Ultimately, they will question everything they think they know about their world and those they trust most.

My review;
 "The Sound of Broken Glass" is, " A Duncan Kincaid & Gemma James Mystery", novel. As in other books by Deborah Crombie it is a mystery filled with twists, turns and suspense. The characters are so well explained and shared with the reader that you feel as if you are right there watching the story unfold. The author has always had wonderful stories and this is one of her best. I was hooked from the first page and I was unable to stop reading until I got to the end to see what happened. The way that Duncan Kincaid helps  Gemma with this mystery is also very interesting. I give this book a 5/5. I was given this book by Partners in Crime Book Tours for the purpose of a review ans all opinions are my own.
