About this listen

Aethelburg City is drowning in fear. A chillingly precise killer dubbed "The Puppeteer" stalks the rain-slicked streets, leaving elaborately staged victims like grotesque marionettes. The police are lost, and Detective Jack Donovan, haunted by his past, is running out of time.

Then the whispers begin. Voices only Jack can hear, offering cryptic clues, impossible insights into the killer's mind. Are they a lifeline, or the first sign of his own unraveling? Jack must secretly harness this terrifying gift, navigating a treacherous path between vital leads and potential madness, all while hiding the truth from his skeptical partner.

But the whispers prove dangerously unreliable, and the Puppeteer seems aware, reacting with escalating violence when the investigation intrudes upon dark secrets rooted in the city's sinister history. Jack follows a trail of obsession and antique horrors, leading him to a solitary craftsman who may be continuing a deadly legacy.

The final confrontation awaits in a hidden lair filled with mechanical nightmares and deadly traps. With everything on the line, Jack receives one last, urgent whisper. Trust the voices that nearly destroyed him, or face a meticulous killer alone?

Whispers in the Dark is a pulse-pounding psychological thriller where the greatest mystery might be the detective's own mind. How far would you go? Who would you trust when the only clues come from the shadows? Prepare for a descent into darkness where every whisper could be salvation… or the final trap.

This is a long involved book on audio. I liked it very much. The characters are all real to life and the secondary characters work well.

The repetition of the word meticulous haunts me more than the voices do the main character. While the story is good, it certainly removed some of the immersion, rolling my eyes everytime something was ‘meticulous’. A good short listen nevertheless.

Is the killer meticulous? You bet
