This is a solid example of a psychological thriller (something I'm finding to be true of this publisher, as well). It wasn't quite what I expected, but there was definitely a creep factor to it. (You may even think you're hearing whispers while reading it!) The characters were interesting and well developed. Alternating points of view add to the depth and detailing of the story. It's a relatively easy, quick read with some twists to keep the reader guessing. It's probably best not to read this late at night, unless you want this stuck in your head: “If you leave a door half-open, soon you'll hear the whispers spoken…”

Are you into suspense and serial killers? Do you stay up watching reruns of crime dramas? This is an excellent thriller that will give you chills and keep you on your toes. Totally captivating read!

I just finished reading this fantastic psychological thriller and I am absolutely in love with it! I am a huge fan of reading about Serial Killers, watching the tv show Criminal Minds, and the book series Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchinson. I have to say, The Whisper Man by Alex North is right up there with those things for me. The Whisper Man exceeded my expectations for a story about crime fiction with serial killers. I definitely give this book a 5/5 star rating!!

A father and son are caught in the crosshairs of an investigation to catch a serial killer preying on a small town. Until Frank Carter was caught, he was nicknamed “The Whisper Man” because he would lure his victims out by whispering at their windows at night. Tom Kennedy and his son Jake have just settled into this new small town for a fresh start after the passing of Rebecca, wife and mother. A boy in the town has just vanished, and the circumstances are quite unsettling as they highly resemble Frank Carter’s crimes. Then, Jake starts hearing whispering at his window…..

This book definitely had the creep factor turned on high! I would lay in bed reading it at night and I just couldn’t do it for long without having a light on. I swear I’m not a chicken!! The writing was phenomenal and everything flowed so well. I enjoyed that a few of the chapters were written in Jake’s perspective as you got more invested in the story. Starting out I would get a little confused between Tom and Pete’s narrations, but soon settled into being able to easily differentiate between the two. I felt that The Whisper Man was a very well thought out, well structured psychological thriller. To me, anytime children are involved, and the slightly supernatural elements are used, it’s hard not to have that feeling of fear that feeds to the reader. I also felt that the familial connection and resolution of past issues between Pete and Tom added something extra to the book. A happiness among all the dark and scary.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good Psychological Thriller, or likes reading about serial killers (real or fake), as this book truly will not disappoint! Keep an eye out for The Whisper Man by Alex North as it releases in August 2019. Thank you Celadon Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC, it was truly a pleasure! Thank you to Alex North for writing such an amazing book, it was truly a wild adventure.

This was an easy read and kept you guessing all along. I wasn't sure exactly where the story was going until close to the end and I was surprised. I will definitely read this author's other works.

This is possibly the scariest novel I’ve ever read. Imagine if Stephen King wrote a book with Michael Connelly and John Hart, then you’ll get some idea of the top shelf story you’re about to dive into.
North uses alternating points of view to spin his tale. We see through the eyes of a father struggling to raise his son while mourning the loss of his wife. We follow the lead detective as he tries to track down a killer while trying to navigate ghosts from his past, including an unresolved case that’s haunted him from years.
To know more about the story is to do yourself and the author a disservice. You’ll want to go in with an open mind and no expectations and I assure you, you’ll hear “The Whisper Man,” speaking to you long after you turn the final page.

What a super awesome book! I highly enjoyed the story! The mystery of the novel is so good! A man moves into a very strange house with his son after losing his wife from a heart attack. He is dealing with his lost and trying to look after his son while a man is kidnapping children. All the pieces fall together and make for such a interesting read. I don't even usually like books with kids being abused or killed but this one is totally different. It's super exciting and suspenseful all the way till the end which didn't take me long at all! Recommend you try this book!

Psychological Thriller, YES PLEASE! This book was amazing! Page Turner, edge of you're seat thriller! Would love to sell this book at my store! Thank you netgalley for the free arc in exchange for an honest review!

What a ride! From start to finish, this epic read was to die for. Will be purchased for library collections. What a thrill!

A suspense/supernatural crime novel. It was a page turner, and the son, Jake, a very interesting character.
