Whisper Room

New Geneva Chase Crime Reporter Mystery from 2022 Sue Grafton Memorial Award Nominee

Powerful men make a sport of hurting women. But now the game is up.

We waited for the deafening thunder of flash grenades, the sickening barrage of gunshots, and the possible outcome that both hostage and hostage taker were dead.

There’s nothing journalist Geneva Chase hates more than predatory men. So, when a local news anchor is arrested for holding his wife hostage to prevent her from releasing incriminating information about him, Geneva is more than ready to dig into the dirty details of the man’s life. What she finds is worse than she expects. A long trial of blackmail and deception leads her to the doorstep of Whisper Room, an exclusive escort service—but it’s unclear what exactly goes on inside. When young women working for the Whisper Room start turning up dead, however, Geneva digs deeper—and inadvertently puts her own life in danger.
