Pete Willis is a hardworking, but haunted, Detective Inspector who is best known for his capture of Frank Carter, “The Whisper Man,” twenty years ago. Tom Kennedy is an author who has just moved to Featherbank with Jake, his son, looking for a fresh start after the death of his wife. When a child goes missing rumors begin to swirl about Frank Carter and the possibility of an accomplice. DI Willis, determined to get to the bottom of the case, finds himself crossing paths with Tom and Jake in a series of events that will greatly impact all of their lives.
The Whisper Man is a page-turning thriller that refuses to let go. The chapters are on the shorter side which, along with the changing narrators, creates an extremely suspenseful story that I found difficult to put down. The characters are capable of creating some rather intense and varying emotions within the reader as they, in the midst of trying to solve (or get away with) a crime, put the question of nature versus nurture to the test.
