Twenty years ago, Frank Carter abducted and murdered five boys. Until he was found and arrested he was known to the town as “the Whisper Man” because he would lure his victims by whispering outside their bedroom windows at night.
.
Detective Pete Wilis worked the case, and has been haunted by it ever since. Especially when another boy suddenly goes missing in the exact same manner as Frank Carter’s victims. Did the Whisper man have an accomplice the whole time? Is he still out there?
That is a very brief, simplified synopsis. There is so much to the story that to describe it all would give too much away.
Alex North crafted the most terrifying villain, the Whisper Man is the thing of nightmares. I’m not one to get spooked by a book, I read a lot of dark thrillers, but this one is on another level. It is absolutely creepy.
The Whisper Man has all you can ask for in a thriller; a gripping plot, characters with secrets and complex histories, and clever writing.
