8.22.2019 - The Whisper Man

The Whisper Man

Many thanks to NetGalley, Celadon Books, and Alex North for the opportunity to read and review this wonderfully creepy thriller!  5 stars for a great read.

After the death of his wife, Tom Kennedy and his son, Jake, need to start a new life.  They move to Featherbank and into a somewhat creepy house that Jake was drawn to right away.  Little did they know, 20 years ago a serial killer was loose in the town, kidnapping and murdering little boys, nicknamed The Whisper Man.  Then another boy goes missing under similar circumstances and the police review their theory that the murderer who sits in jail may have had an accomplice.  Meanwhile, Jake's talk with an imaginary friend have him reciting an old Whisper Man rhyme.  Then Jake hears whispers at night.  We hear from the police detectives - Amanda, who is investigating the current disappearance, and Pete, who investigated the killings 20 years ago and has been haunted ever since.

This is a fast-paced book - creepy but not gory with a little touch of the supernatural.  I loved it - highly recommended!
