The Whisper Man
Ancora distrutto dalla drammatica perdita di sua moglie, Tom Kennedy decide di trasferirsi con il figlio Jake nella tranquilla cittadina di Featherbank e ricominciare da capo. Non sa ancora che un fatto terribile ha appena sconvolto la comunità. Un ragazzino di sei anni è svanito nel nulla e nonostante il vecchio detective Pete Willis non abbia perso tempo con le ricerche, il piccolo non si trova. Come venti anni prima, si riaffaccia l'incubo dell'Uomo dei Sussurri, il serial killer responsabile della scomparsa di cinque bambini. Frank Carter, questo il suo vero nome, era solito attirare le vittime sussurrando alle loro finestre, di notte. E mentre le ricerche del bambino continuano senza tregua, il piccolo Jake inizia a comportarsi in modo strano: si isola dai compagni di classe per passare sempre più tempo con la sua misteriosa amica immaginaria e soprattutto dice di sentire una voce che sussurra il suo nome nel buio.
