The Whisper Man

 

“The Whisper Man” by Alex North

Finished 2/11/21 – 5/5 stars

 

It’s been a while since I’ve read a book as suspenseful as this one was at times.  And a very well written one at that.  One of the things I truly liked about it was that there wasn’t that gimmicky tell all scene at the end where the killer confesses.  Obviously, there were revealing moments to tie things together but it wasn’t forced.

Without giving too much away, when a young man lost his wife, he and his son moved away to start a new life.  What they didn’t know at the time was that they were moving into “the scary house” in town.  From there you learn about the dark past of the town in which 20 years ago people were murdered or went missing.  They caught the serial killer at the time but now another young boy has gone missing.  And from there, you’ll have to read it to find out what happens next.

Great book and highly recommended.
