Emma Reads Crime

20 years ago, the Whisper Man, guilty for kidnaping young boys was caught. Now in the present day, Tom, grieving the sudden death of his wife decides to move to create a fresh start for himself and his son Jake. Just as they settle in to their new home, a boy goes missing leading detectives to believe their theory all along that the whisper man had an accomplice.

I have been wanting to read this book for ages and was so happy when I found it for a bargain from world of books. The author is also from Leeds, where I originally grew up so there was some bias on my part for wanting to read it!

It hits the spot with being gripping and creepy yet not so creepy so you can’t sleep at night. The story has lots of other layers to it too exploring grief and a complicated father son relationship.

If you like the sound of this, it is available on Amazon here.
