This disturbing thriller focuses on the case of The Whisper Man, a serial killer who preyed on young boys in particular. The Whisper Man terrorized a small town 20 years ago, and somehow might be terrorizing a town again....

Jake and his father, Tom, move to this very town to start fresh after the passing of Tom’s wife and Jake’s mother. This fresh start becomes a nightmare as they enter the town in the wake of another boy gone missing. Who will be next?

While there are many characters in this book, I didn’t find it difficult to tell them apart. Even when the author flipped from one person’s perspective to the next, it was clear which character you were following (and it often left to great cliffhangers too!) I often found myself looking over my shoulder after dark while reading this because the eerie nature of the story touches on a pretty primal fear many of us had when we were kids - a stranger after us in the night. I don’t mind being a little spooked, and if you don’t either, pick this up!
