The Whisperer is a chilling horror novel that takes the tropes of the serial killer thriller and does something fresh and unique with them. It's the kind of horror novel that's difficult to talk about without spoiling the fun—suffice it to say that the set-pieces here are among the most harrowing I've read in some time, and it's chock-full of them thanks to the unnerving qualities of the villiain in THE WHISPERER, whose the kind of mastermind I know I'm not likely to shake easily. The body count's high, and if you can predict all the reversals in this one, well, you've bested me.
THE WHISPERER by Donato Carrisi
We have two fantastic blurbs for the novel thus far:
"THE WHISPERER screams high tension, high stakes and high velocity. Superb."–Michael Connelly
"Donato Carrisi has a unique gift for blending fascinating forensic detail, mind-bending plot twists, and empathetic characters into a seamless, powerful narrative. THE WHISPERER intrigues, informs, and haunts simultaneously, a novel that will linger in the mind long after you've finished."–Michael Koryta
And here's what reviewers have said about Donato's debut overseas:
"More than delivers on its ghoulish promise...you might not want to read this alone in the house."–Time Out London
"I defy anyone to guess the denouement." –The Guardian (UK)
"Gripping, multi-layered and difficult to put down ... a top class literary thriller." –Choice (UK)
"Full of original, unexpected twists, where haunters become haunted, a thriller which is simply enthralling, intelligent and fascinating ... a real treat for thriller fans." –Waldeckische Landeszeitung (Germany)
"Enthralling." –Cellesche Zeitung (Germany)
"Astonishing." –Il Messaggero (Italy)
"Unmissable." –Diario Digital (Portugal)
Mulholland Books will be publishing Carrisi's novel in January 2012.
