"This is absorbing, headlong reading, a play on classic horror with an inventiveness of its own... As with all the best illusions, you are left feeling not tricked, but full of wonder."<BR>- The New York Times<BR><BR>The haunting new thriller from Alex North, author of the New York Times bestseller The Whisper Man<BR><BR>You knew a teenager like Charlie Crabtree. A dark imagination, a sinister smile--always on the outside of the group. Some part of you suspected he might be capable of doing something awful. Twenty-five years ago, Crabtree did just that, committing a murder so shocking that it's attracted that strange kind of infamy that only exists on the darkest corners of the internet--and inspired more than one copycat.<BR><BR> Paul Adams remembers the case all too well: Crabtree--and his victim--were Paul's friends. Paul has slowly put his life back together. But now his mother, old and suffering from dementia, has taken a turn for the worse. Though every inch of him resists, it is time to come home.<BR><BR> It's not long before things start to go wrong. Paul learns that Detective Amanda Beck is investigating another copycat that has struck in the nearby town of Featherbank. His mother is distressed, insistent that there's something in the house. And someone is following him. Which reminds him of the most unsettling thing about that awful day twenty-five years ago.<BR><BR> It wasn't just the murder.<BR><BR> It was the fact that afterward, Charlie Crabtree was never seen again...

L' uomo dei sussurri
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.
