Whispers in the Dark by Laurel Hightower
4.0
First of all, I cannot believe this is a debut novel. Laurel has a gift for writing, that's for sure. From the very first page, I was enthralled.
Second, can I be Rose when I grow up? What a badass, empowering lead character! I loved her. Rose is a SWAT sniper - she's smart, tough and can handle anything thrown her way but she does have secrets. She also gets a big surprise thrown her way which challenges everything she believes in.
Whispers in the Dark was creepy AF and I loved how there were so many layers to this horror story. Mixing supernatural with real life horror elements - this book had all my favorite tropes.
I cannot wait to read more from this author!
