Publisher's summary

#1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz “pulls out all the stops” (Publishers Weekly) in this haunting psychological thriller...

For thirty-five years, Bruno Frye has lived in the shadow of the adopted mother who made his heart beat with constant fear. And even though she died five years ago, the whispers still haunt him in the dark...enough to make him kill - and kill again.

Hilary Thomas is one of his intended victims. And she’s about to learn that even death can’t keep a bad man down...

Pretty Good read

Would you listen to Whispers again? Why?

I probably wouldn't listen again, was too drawn out in spots.

If you’ve listened to books by Dean Koontz before, how does this one compare?

Compared to my last read it did not compare!

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

A Little Creepy

What made the experience of listening to Whispers the most enjoyable?

Which is what you are hoping for when you select this author. Took some winding turns that were unexpected and added to the listening.

Good not great

The book was okay, but there’s like a full porno scene in the middle which is entirely unnecessary and weird. Deano was horny as hell when he wrote this one.

LOVE Dean Koontz

Love Dean Koontz. Definitely not his best. Took a while to get into it but it was a good read after all. I probably read about 70-80 Koontz books. This one ranks amongst the 5 I liked least.
