Book Description:
Someone is stalking the little town of Silence. Three victims have fallen to a killer’s savage vengeance. Each of the dead men was a successful and respected member of the community--yet each also harbored a dark secret discovered only after his murder. Were their deaths the ultimate punishment for those secrets? Or something even more sinister? Nell Gallagher has come home to Silence more than a decade after leaving one dark night with her own painful secrets. Forced now by family duty to return, she has also come home to settle with the past. But past and present tangle in a murderer’s vicious attacks, and to find the answers she needs, Nell must call on the psychic skills that drove her away years before. She must risk her own life and sanity, and regain the trust of the man she left behind so long ago. For the killer she seeks is seeking her, watching her every move, preying upon her every vulnerability--and already so close she’ll never see death coming . . .

Even though I'm not into mysteries involving a psychic detective, it was an enjoyable read for the subway.

This was really a surprise. To find out who the bad guy was. Great reading.

ages upon pages of pseudoscientific explanations and stale dialogue clutter up Whisper of Evil, the newest in Kay Hooper's paranormal mystery series (after Touching Evil). Reluctant psychic Nell Gallagher never planned to return home to Silence, especially not to settle the affairs of her father, whom she hated, or to help solve a string of murders that has the local sheriff scratching his head. But before long, she teams up with her old high school flame, Max Tanner, to root out the killer. While the romantic tension between Nell and Max is strong, the book's action is virtually nonexistent. Instead, Hooper fills her story with unwieldy discussions of psychic powers, energy fields and electric brain impulses.

If your a van of the series on paranormal abilities - it's good. I found little in it which was what I consider paranormal.

Ms Hooper is every bit as good and prolific as Nora Roberts. This book was particularly good.

THis is the first Kay Hooper I have read. At first I was not very intrigued because it seemed to get off to a slow start. But the story eventually got rolling with a full head of steam and I am glad I stuck it out. Good read!

Great book, with some Crime Drama thrown together with psychic powers to make a verrry interesting read! Kay Hooper has written a series of books with a task force of people with EXTRA SENSES, psychic and otherwise. It is ran by a man named Bishop. The great thing about these books, is that they do not need to be read in any particular order! All of the Kay Hooper/Bishop Series books I have read, are just fabulous!

First time I have read a story by Kay Hooper. I have to say she does a great job. She has several changes in direction and a very nice twist in the book. I think I shall seek some more of her work and read on...
