Editorial Reviews

From AudioFile

Sixteen-year-old Sarah doesn't see dead people, like the kid in THE SIXTH SENSE. But she hears them. And she definitely feels them after her parents move into a new house that turns out to have been the site of a horrible murder or two. And the murderer is still on the loose. Narrator Julie Dretzin delivers the horror in such a low-key, realistic way that listeners will almost forgive the author for giving away too much too early. M.C.

This review is from: Whispers from the Dead (Audio Cassette)
A couple months back, Sarah had drowned in a lake and had nearly died. Now, she finds out that she can talk to spirits because her therapist said that when someone dies, they get sucked into the spirit world, and because Sarah almost died she was halfway through the portal and now she can talk to spirits. Later on, Sarah and her family decide to move. They get a big house for a low price, but they didn't know that there was a murder that occurred in that house about 2 years ago. They suspected that the murderer was Adam Holt but they didn't have any evidence. Sarah starts hearing these cries for help in Spanish by a woman named Rosa. Apparently, she was the one who was murdered two years ago. One day, Sarah meets a guy named Tony. She falls in love with him. Then, one day, Tony takes Sarah to the lake and tries to drown her but someone stopped him. A few days later, Sarah goes to the detective's office to look at some pictures of Adam Holt, the guy who murdered Rosa. It turns out that Tony was disguised as Adam Holt. The police arrests Tony and throw him in jail.
I chose this book because I really like scary mystery books. The title sounded scary so I decided to read it. I also picked this book because my friend read it and she said that it was really good. I read other people's reviews on this book and they all said that it was good so I decided to read it.
I really enjoyed this book. I liked how it was scary and mystifying at the same time. My favorite part was when Sarah found out that Tony was really Adam Holt in disguise. When she was looking at the photos in the detective's office, she saw a purple birthmark on Adam's wrist. She remembered that Tony had the exact same birthmark on his wrist. She colored in Adam's light colored hair and drew in a mustache and then she knew that Tony was really Adam Holt.
