If you leave a door half open, soon you'll hear the whispers spoken... If you're lonely, sad, and blue, the Whisper Man will come for you.

This blurb of the rhyme, from the book jacket, got me hooked. I wanted to read this book closer to Halloween since it's is a thriller and it was giving me spooky vibes. And I wasn't disappointed. It has a strong start, slows down it's pace in the middle, then picks up again but slows down again at the end. It didn't have all that unpredictable of a "twist" if you can call it that, because it builds up to it with major hints from very early on, but it was still worthwhile to read.

I read this before The Shadows and I know most people like this one better, but I like The Shadows better. The only connection between the two books is that the female detective is the same, but they even take place in different towns.
