It seems that the town of Featherbank is not done with the lore of The Whisper Man. Some investigations stayed with you, sinking their claws in and hanging on, so that you would always have to drag them behind you no matter how hard you tried to dislodge them. Haven’t you ever thought you heard something in the middle of the night and been creeped out? Scared to get out of bed and see what made the noise? No? Maybe I’m too jumpy, but the idea of someone whispering at my window creeps me out to no end! He was known for abducting and subsequently killing young boys after luring them into his grip by whispering at their windows. THE WHISPER MAN hones in on the tale of a serial killer using the same title. Even if you’ve never been in that position, you’ve likely seen a movie or watched a TV show with that focus and can relate to how unsettling folklore can be.
I think it adds an element that connects the reader to their childhood and hearing scary stories and wondering if they were real. I’m a massive fan of authors including the use of folklore in their crime fiction stories. You know how there are books that get hyped, but don’t necessarily live up to the rumors? We’ve all been there, right? Well THE WHISPER MAN is not that book! This is a book that deserves every single ounce of praise it has received and more! If you’re lonely, sad, and blue, the Whisper Man will come for you. If your window’s left unlatched, you’ll hear him tapping at the glass. If you play outside alone, soon you won’t be going home. If you leave a door half open, soon you’ll hear the whispers spoken. As Jake starts to report whispers at his window, the reality that the Kennedy family might be the killer’s next target comes to light. Detectives Amanda Beck and Pete Willis must revisit the town’s history and open up old wounds in order to protect the citizens around them. It seems someone is out to bring the memories of The Whisper Man back to present day.
Known as The Whisper Man, Frank Carter went undiscovered for a time, luring his victims from their beds by whispering at their windows in the night. Twenty years ago a serial killer abducted and murdered five young boys. The town of Featherbank has a dark history. When Jake starts to tell his father about the boy in the floor and a man is found lingering on their property, Tom can no longer brush these strange instances aside. What they find behind the walls of their strange looking new home are a series of horrors that no family should have to face. They are on the hunt for a new beginning in the town of Featherbank. Tom Kennedy’s wife passed away suddenly and he believes nothing will help is son, Jake, more in recovering from this tragedy than making a fresh start.
