The Whisper Man by Alex North

4.0

This is my favorite from Alex North so far. This was dark and twisted with the perfect balance between thriller and paranormal. Christopher Eccleston did a PHENOMENAL job narrating this. He gave such a strength to the already solid story.

Upon moving to a new town after the recent death of his wife, Tom and his son Jake try to rebuild, only he chooses a town with a brutal past. A serial killer once roamed here. He has since been caught and resides in prison… but there is a copycat using the same pattern and Jake is in the crosshairs.

This is told in multiple POV and I found all the character contributions interesting. The relationship between Tom and Jake is strained and history that is revealed with Tom’s own father was a great twist.

The paranormal element in this book was my favorite part. I love the eerily unlexplained… and this book had it. It was chill-inducing and unsettling.
