Valence Scénario is an international festival entirely dedicated to storytellers, both screenwriters and composers, aiming to continuously promote the emergence of new writing talents. The 27^th edition of the festival took place between 3^rd and 8^th of June 2024.

From a podcast studio in the back of his camper, ex-military and former police student Markus Heger investigates old and new crime cases. “The scream nobody heard” was supposed to be a series about seven-year-old Leah Forsberg, who disappeared from Fagernes 15 years ago, but it only became one episode. Although Leah’s body was never found, her father was convicted of her murder. When another girl disappears, Markus finds himself drawn back into the case again, and information from a reliable source has him questioning if the right man was put behind bars.

Meanwhile, things from his past that he’s desperately been trying to push away keep resurfacing. His absent father writes from prison, asking to meet with him. Perhaps he can help Markus solve the case, and maybe they can mend their broken relationship at the same time.

The Scream is the first installment in a new series by two of Norway’s most prominent crime authors.
