The Whisper Place By Mindy Mejia

 

The Whisper Place starts as a slow burn, constantly building pressure and intensity before erupting in a panic-induced race to the finish that will have you reading at warp speed with a frantic need to learn the outcome.  Mindy Mejia has crafted an emotionally gripping and severely unsettling thriller that will fray your nerves and exercise your heart. 

Charlie walks into the office of Celina Investigations and drops a large bundle of cash on the desk, asking Max Summerlin and Jonah Kendrick to find his missing girlfriend.  But there’s a catch – he doesn’t know her real name.  It’s the type of case that Max, a former police officer, and Jonah, a psychic detective, are perfectly suited to explore.  As they investigate and learn about the missing woman’s past, their concern and sense of urgency explode and create a desperate need to find her immediately.  Before it’s too late.

The third book in this series, The Whisper Place does a good job of continued character development to advance the narratives from the two prior books while also representing a good starting point for new readers to jump in.  It’s a thriller that thrives on the actions, emotions and relationships between the individuals in the story, using their relatability to build strong connections with the readers that gets them fully invested in the outcome.  So, when the story kicks into high gear, increasing the danger and the possibility of multiple characters not surviving, you’re all in and have a visceral need to rocket ahead to get to the conclusion.  Hoping for the best but fearing the worst.  A feeling that only the best thrillers can pull off.  And this thriller is one not to be missed.
