rmarcin 's review for:

Whistle by Linwood Barclay
4.0

After an author's beloved children's series is connected to a horrific event, and after losing her husband in a freak accident, the author hits a wall. But her agent wants her to keep writing, and arranges for her and her young son to vacation at a house in a small town. She dreams of her dead husband telling her not to go. The town has a sinister feel to it, with people having very mysterious occurrences each time a train set is played with and the whistle blows. 
Eerie, mysterious, creepy, and slight supernatural elements make this novel especially sinister.
