About this product

Product Information

A field of corpses, laid out in a macabre displayĆ¢ā‚¬Ā¦A serial killer who confounds even the most seasoned profilersĆ¢ā‚¬Ā¦A doctor whose life has been shattered by crime-plunged into the heart of a shocking investigationĆ¢ā‚¬Ā¦ In this masterful new novel by Simon Beckett, #1 internationally bestselling author ofWritten in BoneandThe Chemistry of Death,forensic anthropologist David Hunter is thrust into his first murder investigation on U.S. soil-and his most devastating case yet. In the heat of a Tennessee summer, Dr. Hunter has come to Knoxville's legendary "Body Farm"-the infamous field laboratory where law enforcement personnel study real corpses-to escape London and the violence that nearly destroyed his life. He's also here to find out if he's still up to the job of sorting through death in all its strange and terrible forms.Ć¢ā‚¬Ā¦ Hunter will soon find his answer when he's called to a crime scene in a remote Smoky Mountain cabin-a scene as grisly as it is bizarre. The body is taped to a table. Everything about the crime scene-the wounds, the decomposition, the microscopic evidence-quickly short-circuits the tools and methods of forensic experts. Within days, Hunter knows he's dealing with a serial killer, someone intimately familiar with the intricacies of forensics. All around him, egos and hierarchies clash-from the boasts of a renowned criminal profiler to the dogged work of a young female investigator-but fate keeps pushing Hunter further into the heart of the manhunt. And the killer keeps coming up with surprises: booby-trapping corpses, faking times of death, swapping bodies-finally turning his sights on after Hunter himself.Ć¢ā‚¬Ā¦ An electrifying race against time, a fascinating journey into the world of forensic science, and a terrifying portrait of a killer in love with death itself,Whispers of the Deadis a thriller of the highest order.

Thank you so very much for your 5* service šŸ˜Š

  • Whispers of the Dead by Simon Beckett

    This is the third book in the series about British forensic anthropologist Dr. David Hunter. In this book he returns to the Body Farm in Tennessee to work with his old mentor and gets involved in a serial killer investigation. These books just keep getting better and better. This one practially had me biting my fingernails to the bone. Mr. Beckett writes extremely well and you really care about his characters. I am truly looking forward to the fourth book in this series. His books are as good or even better than the usual forensic anthropologist series out there.

  • Simon Beckett

    I could hardly put this book down to go to sleep at night. Amazing twists and turns right up to the last couple of pages. I'm ordering more of the David Hunter series, because I these books are some of the very best I've ever read!!

  • Can't wait to start reading!

    This is a great author. I've read his first two books -- Chemistry of Death and Written in Bone. Written in Bone was a cliffhanger and I just HAD to get the next book because I couldn't find it in any bookstore. I'm looking forward to reading this one and then his next one!

  • Whispers of the Dead is a good murder mystery

    Could not put the book down. Was a fascinating read.

    a good gruesome tale. Not as good as Jefferson Bass but well worth the time.
