Praise for The Whispers : "Enticing, nuanced, and unflinching, The Whispers opens a secret portal into the private lives of women in suburbia. A narrative portrait of motherhood and marriage, of loneliness and longing, of loss and desire, this is a novel where the characters are so recognizable, it''s nearly impossible to feel they are strangers. Rather, through the course of the deeply thrilling and provocative pages, one comes to feel they''re as real as neighbors, colleagues and friends. A truly masterful novel." --Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid "The Whispers is spellbinding, a shimmering, visceral ride through the dark side of family, of community, of womanhood and mothering. Nobody delves as deep into the guts of motherhood as Ashley Audrain, she really is in a league of her own." --Lisa Jewell, #1 New York Times bestselling author of None of This Is True "No one understands the secret lives of women like Ashley Audrain. In her electrifying new novel, The Whispers , the unspoken fears, desires, and shame of four neighbors threaten the lives they''ve so carefully constructed. It''s a razor-sharp page-turner. Masterful!" --Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After " The Whispers is a masterwork: a page-turner, a searing emotional rollercoaster and a beautifully-written hymn to the pain, the love, the fury of motherhood. I could think about nothing but Ashley Audrain''s perfectly-drawn characters in the three days it took me to tear through this novel, and I suspect they will live on in my mind for a long time to come. Sensational." --Rosie Walsh, New York Times bestselling author of The Love of My Life "Driven by desire, jealousy and revenge, everyone is under suspicion and guilty of something in this powerful, edgy and addictive novel by the queen of psychological drama, Ashley Audrain. An honest, uncensored look at women and motherhood in the wake of a mysterious tragedy, The Whispers is a must-read." --Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of Just the Nicest Couple "Ashley Audrain writes about motherhood and how it feels to be a woman today with a fearlessness few can muster. Every time I turned a page, I thought: yes! This is why I read--to connect, to feel seen, to be confronted with my deepest fears, and, of course, to go on a breathtakingly suspenseful ride while doing it." --Chandler Baker, New York Times bestselling author of The Husbands " The Whispers is a chilling story and a beautifully observed exploration of what it means to be a woman, highlighting the sacrifices involved and the often frightening choices that have to be made. The knowledge that something awful is looming lends the narrative a compelling sense of unease that builds to a thickening dread as Audrain ratchets up the tension. A quietly revelatory and unnerving novel that works on so many levels--I couldn''t put it down." --Sarah Pearse, New York Times bestselling author of The Retreat "Ashley Audrain has a profound understanding of how thin the line between good and evil can be. The Whispers leads readers past the carefully composed facade of Harlow Street to dig, unflinchingly, into themes of motherhood, fidelity, privilege and complicity, resulting in a novel that not only delivers on the promise of its taut, explosive and page-turning plot--but redefines the very idea of what a thriller is and can be. Daring, incisive, and exquisitely written, Audrain has proven herself a force like no other." --Courtney Summers, New York Times bestselling author of Sadie "I couldn''t put The Whispers down. It held me by my throat the entire way and left me in awe of Audrain''s talent and her ability to put the female experience so ruthlessly, so painfully and so beautifully into words. She is exceptional at her craft, one of the best, and her work should be read religiously and consistently by all. I can''t recommend this book enough." --Salma El-Wardany, author of These Impossible Things, Praise for The Whispers : "Audrain takes a deep dive into the secret lives of women in this standout work of literary suspense...The novel soars via Audrain''s clever revelations of the ways her protagonists'' lives are linked in ways they never suspected. Both artful and pulse pounding, this isn''t easily shaken." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "The Whispers is spellbinding, a shimmering, visceral ride...Nobody delves as deep into the guts of motherhood as Ashley Audrain, she really is in a league of her own." --Lisa Jewell, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Family Remains "Enticing, nuanced, and unflinching, The Whispers opens a secret portal into the private lives of women in suburbia." --Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid "No one understands the secret lives of women like Ashley Audrain.

Synopsis
"Expertly, subtly and powerfully rendered....[ The Whispers ] delivers a sucker-punch ending you'll have to read twice to believe."-- The New York Times Book Review "[An] electrifying...razor-sharp page-turner." --Carley Fortune, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After Featured in summer reading recommendations by Good Morning America, TIME, ELLE, The Washington Post & more From the New York Times bestselling author of The Push , a propulsive page-turner about four families whose lives are changed when the unthinkable happens--and what is lost when we give in to our own worst impulses On Harlow Street, the well-to-do neighborhood couples and their children gather for a catered barbecue as the summer winds down; drinks continue late into the night. Everything is fabulous until the picture-perfect hostess explodes in fury because her son disobeys her. Everyone at the party hears her exquisite veneer crack--loud and clear. Before long, that same young boy falls from his bedside window in the middle of the night. And then, his mother can only sit by her son's hospital bed, where she refuses to speak to anyone, and his life hangs in the balance. What happens next, over the course of a tense three days, as each of these women grapple with what led to that terrible night? Exploring envy, women's friendships, desire, and the intuitions that we silence, The Whispers is a chilling novel that marks Audrain as a major women's fiction talent., From the author of THE PUSH, a pageturner about four suburban families whose lives are changed when the unthinkable happens--and what is lost when good people make unconscionable choices The Loverlys sit by the hospital bed of their young son who is in a coma after falling from his bedroom window in the middle of the night; his mother, Whitney, will not speak to anyone. Back home, their friends and neighbors are left in shock, each confronting their own role in the events that led up to what happened that terrible night: the warm, altruistic Parks who are the Loverlys' best friends; the young, ambitious Goldsmiths who are struggling to start a family of their own; and the quiet, elderly Portuguese couple who care for their adult son with a developmental disability, and who pass the long days on the front porch, watching their neighbors go about their busy lives. The story spins out over the course of one week, in the alternating voices of the women in each family as they are forced to face the secrets within the walls of their own homes, and the uncomfortable truths that connect them all to one another. Set against the heartwrenching drama of what will happen to Xavier, who hangs between death and life, or a life changed forever, THE WHISPERS is a novel about what happens when we put our needs ahead of our children's. Exploring the quiet sacrifices of motherhood, the intuitions that we silence, the complexities of our closest friendships, and the danger of envy, this is a novel about the reverberations of life's most difficult decisions.
