Whisper down the Lane

Whisper Down the Lane is based on true events of the 80s, when Satanic culture and fear was running rampant. Everything was being scrutinized as being the work of the Devil from The Smurfs to Dungeons and Dragons. When I saw this book, I was intrigued and ready to dive in.

I was expecting horror more than psychological thriller based on the synopsis. This is not that, in the general sense, this is horror in an entirely different aspect. Children being abused or harmed is a huge fear for parents and Whisper Down the Lane does well in playing off that fear. All it takes is one child...one story...one adult pushing their thoughts onto that child...and all sorts of chaos falls from it.

I haven't read this author before and I enjoyed the writing, flow and story. It took a bit for me to be fully invested but once I got there I flew through the remainder. This would actually make a good one to read during Spooktober. I definitely recommend for true crime fans as it reads more along those lines.

I sincerely appreciate Quirk Books for providing me with a review copy. All opinions expressed herein are mine and mine alone.
