About The Book

The Whisper Man meets the paranoia of The Blair Witch Project in this terrifying suspense novel from “an exciting new voice in the field of chilling thrillers” (Alex North, New York Times bestselling author).

That’s the one. That’s the girl who’s going to die.

I didn’t believe in the Rule of Three. Not at first. It was just one of those urban myths you hear about all the time. A story my boyfriend told me about a girl cursed by the number three. A girl whose parents had killed themselves after her sibling had died in an accident. Which meant that she was doomed to die too.

Bad things always happen in threes, they say, and they are right. Because it’s happening again.

But this time the curse is coming for me. And worst of all?

It’s coming for you, too.
