'WOW what a read... A book for the women of today. I loved it!!!!!' 'I am still thinking about Whisper Network weeks after reading the last page' 'I could not put this book down' 'Do yourself a favour ladies and read this well-paced, witty and ballsy homage to working women everywhere' 'Furious and relevant... I loved it so much' CLARE MACKINTOSH ***THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*** _____________ 'Ms. Sandberg was right about something. We had to lean in. It was the only way to hear the whispers...' Sloane, Ardie, Grace and Rosalita have worked in the same legal office for years. The sudden death of the firm's CEO means their boss, Ames, will likely take over the entire company. Each of the women has a different relationship with Ames, who has always been surrounded by whispers about how he treats women. Those whispers have been ignored, swept under the rug, hidden away by those in charge. But the world has changed, and the women are watching this latest promotion for Ames differently. This time, they've decided enough is enough. Sloane and her colleagues' decision to take a stand sets in motion something catastrophic and unstoppable: lies will be uncovered, secrets will be exposed and not everyone will survive. All their lives - as women, colleagues, mothers, adversaries - will be changed for ever. 'Add another great book to your beach bag! This story has a workplace murder mystery that happens in today's #MeToo era. It's honest, timely and completely thrilling - I was so surprised to find out who the murderer was!' REESE WITHERSPOON 'It's The Firm meets 9 To 5. This is a juicy air-punch of a novel' ALEXANDRA HEMINSLEY, GRAZIA 'Slick, smart, fierce, it's Big Little Lies set against attorneys and recast in the light of #MeToo. Relevant, resonant and rage inducing' SARAH VAUGHAN 'A barnstorming modern novel' EVENING STANDARD MAGAZINE 'Smart, witty and scarily relateable... this is going to get everyone talking' FABULOUS MAGAZINE 'Witty and timely will make you cheer for sisterhood' LIV CONSTANTINE 'A timely and apposite #MeToo novel, but also a clever thriller, which highlights the many ways in which women are discriminated against in the workplace' SARA MANNING RED MAGAZINE 'A primal roar of a novel. A fantastic read' RILEY SAGER 'A thriller for the #metoo era' LUCY MANGAN, STYLIST

This was just okay for me. The narration drove me crazy, the characters weren't likeable but the plot was just interesting enough to keep me reading.
