"Fifteen-year-old Lindy Rosen has been having nightmares for weeks, waking in a panic, screaming that there's a man in her room watching her sleep. Her parents assumed it was her overactive imagination, but when one morning they find Lindy missing from her bedroom, they're not so sure. Detective Jenna Alton is called in to investigate. Within hours of the schoolgirl going missing, the kidnapper reaches out to Jenna with a video of Lindy bound and tied to a chair, crying to be set free. And a simple message - you've got 24 hours to find her or I kill her. Jenna's team work around the clock to try to find Lindy before the deadline, but time runs out, and Jenna receives a devastating message. The killer has made good on his promise. He's playing a dangerous game. And no one knows what his next move will be. But just two days later, one of Lindy's school friends is taken in the middle of the night and the countdown begins again.

I loved this book! I was engaged from the first page and couldn't put the book down until I had read through it completely in one sitting. There was one issue that I have though. Around page 60 Lindy's body is found. However, there was no build up from the police officers working a scene before it is announced that the body was found. The reader finds out when Jenna mentions it as a past event. I think this is a mistake, but only because I have never read a mystery where the discovery of the body is not fully developed. It should be essential to the rest of the story. The rest of the story was intense and fast paced and the ending resolved all of the questions concerning the crimes. Again, I take issue with how Jenna resolved the crime. She didn't. The killer appeared in her home and told her who he was and that she was going to be his next killing. Jenna had no idea who the serial killer was until he showed up in her kitchen. The killer conveniently spilled out answers to the who, how and why questions about his crime spree before being handcuffed. While the beginning and ending were a little unorthodox, Whisper is still a fantastic novel because of the intense suspense the author created. ( )

One morning her parents find her gone. Sheriff Alton leads her team in the search for her. But it seems the killer has decided to taunt Alton. Will Lindy be the only victim.
Another well-written story in this series. A fast-paced thriller with enough suspects to keep you guessing.

Another great installment of the Kane & Alton series from D.K. Hood. I've thoroughly enjoyed the entire series, and this book was no exception. It had me mentally cursing anything that made me put my kindle down. I sailed through, not wanting to ever stop reading.
Black Rock Falls definitely has to be explored further, as it seems to attract every sort of undesirable character possible. There is a long list of suspects, none of which I could root for, but I do so enjoy characters that you love to hate. I had my suspicions but wasn't 100% certain until the reveal so bonus points for that.
From the wonderful scene setting to the ever growing relationships between the main characters and their extended "family", D.K. Hood has managed to pen another great story, making sure to not only focus on Kane and Alton but other members of the team who are integral to them both professionally and personally.
Highly recommend not only this book but the entire series. If this is your genre, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

*Thank you to Netgalley, the author, and publisher for an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review *
