I don't want to write this review. I wanted to love this book as much as I liked the first installment of the new Jane Hawk, The Silent Corner. But this one did not do it's predecessor justice. It was a good book, don't get me wrong, but it didn't have that same Dean Koontz flare that I so love. The Whispering Room seemed to me to have too much 'filler' and coming in at over 500 pages, this story definitely did not need extra words. I don't think that cutting out some of these pages would have taken away from the story as it's not one that you need to feel drawn into a scene; it's more of an action type novel. A solid 4 stars but not the Koontz that I'd stay up all night reading.

Picking up right where book one left off with Jane still on the run I highly recommend reading from the beginning with ‘The Silent Corner’ before jumping into this one to get the most out of the story lines.
Both books are more than worth a read and I cant recommend them highly enough.
For both die hard Koontz fans as well as newcomers to this author this and its predecessor are defiantly Must Reads
