Ok so it took me a really long time to read this one. normally this is the type of book that I would enjoy. since I won this book I did not realize that it was the second in the series. so I had to go back and read the first one. I do not like to start in the middle of a story.\

I read the first book and thought um ok she's semi badass but I don't like her.. I don't know what it was about her. I think it was her attitude and her whining..
so I finished the first book and was like yeah I'm not gonna continue. yeah I know new author to me I should at least give them a chance right.


So I let this book sit for a long while on my shelf, all the while taunting me. so I finally read it and decided nope just not my cup of tea. I didn't even finish it. this isn't saying anything about the author, its saying more about me. and my tastes in books. maybe one day I will pick it up again but it just wasn't that time.

I was able to read The Whispering Room for free from Netgalley, the publisher and the author for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Please be advise that if you like reading books in order you can read the Silent Corner, the first book in this series featuring FBI agent Jane Hawk, but it is not necessary to have read book one in order to understand the storyline. This is a thriller, I have forgotten how reading books by Dean Koontz gives you an adrenaline rush.
Jane Hawk is an FBI agent, gone rogue, charged of multiple murders. No one is telling the truth and she has a son to protect so she needs to tell her story before 'they find him and her'.
This is a great series to read for yourself and for book clubs.
