Description

When Detective Megan Reed returns to her rural hometown of Pine Ridge after fifteen years, she's drawn into a chilling mystery that strikes at the heart of her past. The discovery of skeletal remains in Whispering Pines Forest reopens the cold case of her best friend Cassie Winters' disappearance, a wound that has haunted Megan since she was eighteen. As she digs deeper, Megan uncovers a sinister web of corruption, human trafficking, and murder implicating the town's most powerful figures. With the help of Dr. Nathan Walsh, a man with his own hidden connection to Cassie, Megan races to expose the truth before more lives are lost—even as the killer targets her to keep Pine Ridge's darkest secrets buried. In the tradition of Tana French's atmospheric mysteries and Lisa Gardner's gripping psychological suspense, Whispers of the Pines is a haunting tale of justice, betrayal, and the unyielding power of truth.
