Jane Hawk continues her fight against the powerful people who believe themselves above the law and who are conspiring to remake America’s future in the image they have chosen for its people.
Beloved school teacher Cora Gunderson has trouble understanding what is happening to her until the day she drives her Ford Expedition into a newly-remodeled and re-opened hotel restaurant, claiming the life of the governor and a district congressman.
What drove Cora Gunderson to this unspeakable act? Why did she write in her journal that spiders were crawling around in her brain, laying their eggs there?
Jane Hawk knows. Cora, like Jane’s husband, Nick, and so many others, became the victim of the evil machinations of a group led by the founder of Far Horizons. What this covert group doesn’t know is the extent to which their foe Jane Hawk has become unstoppable in her hunt for the answers.
What the now-rogue FBI agent doesn’t know is what Iron Furnace has to do with the conspiracy.
Jane discovers the answer is one that leaves eight children in peril. But is her own peril tied to the horror of the whispering room?
Continuing the story begun in “The Silent Corner,” this near-future techno thriller has a twisting plot replete with surprises and unexpected reveals. There is just about enough recap of the first book for those who come to this one without the benefit of having read the beginning of Jane’s saga although they will have missed the wonderful nuances of the first narrative. The characters are well-drawn and believable, especially the children of Iron Furnace. Readers will be hard-pressed to set this one aside before turning the final page.
Highly recommended.
