Über diesen Titel

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Whisper Man by Alex North, read by Christopher Eccleston.

If you leave a door half-open, soon you'll hear the whispers spoken...

Still devastated after the loss of his wife, Tom Kennedy and his young son Jake move to the sleepy village of Featherbank, looking for a fresh start.

But Featherbank has a dark past. Fifteen years ago a twisted serial killer abducted and murdered five young boys. Until he was finally caught, the killer was known as 'The Whisper Man'.

Of course, an old crime need not trouble Tom and Jake as they try to settle in to their new home. Except that now another young boy has gone missing. And then Jake begins acting strangely.

He says he hears a whispering at his window...

Kritikerstimmen

A gripping exploration of father-son relationships with a propulsive plot, The Whisper Man is a true skin-crawler
A police procedural with supernatural overtones
Creepy. With the movie rights sold to Hollywood, Alfred Hitchcock would have loved every spine-tingling moment
The best crime novel of the decade
Alex North has achieved the seemingly impossible. The Whisper Man is a thriller that is both terrifying and utterly heartbreaking. Mesmerising and masterful.
First it's spooky. Then it's scary. Then it's terrifying. And then... well, dear reader, proceed at your own risk. An ambitious, deeply satisfying thriller - a seamless blend of Harlan Coben, Stephen King, and Thomas Harris. My flesh is still crawling
A police procedural with supernatural overtones, this is a true skin-crawler
The Whisper Man is going to be huge. Dark enough to chill your blood but so beautifully written you will not be able to put it down. Utterly brilliant.
Beautifully written. Beautifully plotted. Shades of Thomas Harris and Stephen King but brilliant in its own right
An ultra-creepy tinge of the supernatural, blended with a petrifying threat from all-too-human monsters, conjures truly blood-chilling menace. Built on a tender theme, this flawlessly plotted thriller absolutely deserves to be shouted about

This book made me bite my nails. The author managed to create a story so complete by giving different perspectives. Everybody who likes suspense must read this story. It's a benchmark of its kind.

This is by far the best thriller ever written!

Der Sprecher liest recht monoton, oft wusste ich nicht wer gerade spricht, ob es ein Dialog oder ein Gedanke ist etc.
Story war so lala. Spannender Anfang, aber dann doch etwas stumpf und wenige tiefgründig. Bisschen wie ein Sonntagskrimi im Fernsehen

Geht so

Eccelston should not be allowed to read for audio books. He is the worst I have ever heard. I usually get used to bad readers and still hear out a good story but there is a limit I guess, he ruined this book for me.

The story is ok.

Read like a 10 year old.
