Tom is unaware of the history of the area, the rumours of the ‘ creepy‘ house that he buys and of the sinister history of ‘ The Whisper Man‘ that haunts Featherbank.Ī boy has recently gone missing in Featherbank and the disappearance bears all of the hallmarks of a serial killer who, 15 years ago abducted and murdered five young boys. The move is a chance to try and heal, to try and move forward, not forgetting but trying to live again, to put the broken pieces back together and to begin anew. 🙂 The Whisper Man by Alex North.Īfter suffering a family bereavement, the devastating and sudden loss of his wife ten months ago Tom Kennedy and Jake, his young son relocate to the picturesque and quiet village of Featherbank.
I will include a snippet of my original review ( I’m lazy, I can’t be bothered to write new words and well, the remake is never as good as the original) with a link to the full review for each book, and I hope that at least one of the books piques your interest. If you want to see if the psychological thriller ( tinged with hints of the supernatural) is a genre for you, then simply, give one of these books a try they are each a perfect example.Īfter finishing each of the books I reread my original review and I firmly stand by my thoughts and the words that I wrote for them the first time around.
The books lost nothing on the reread and I enjoyed them just as much as the first time that I read them, pure quality. It was an immense pleasure to reread the three books and once again delve into the darkness that North and Tudor create. Until then, I absolutely loved each of The Whisper Man, The Chalk Man and The Taking of Annie Thorne the first time that I read them and they ALL made my favourite book of the year lists for the year in which they were released. Tudor and North are two of my favourite authors and I really need to get my arse in gear and read both. I also have a hardback copy of The Shadow Friend ( that I purchased myself) by Alex North and well, the paperback version of that was out the other week. Side note: I should perhaps apologise to both of the authors as I have an ARC of The Burning Girls by CJ Tudor, her latest book that was out in January and I am yet to read.
