Über die Grenze zwischen Kanada und Maine wird viel geschmuggelt: Drogen, Waffen, Geld. Doch was eine Gruppe ehemaliger Soldaten über die Grenze bringt, ist viel entsetzlicher und unvorstellbarer. Nicht so für Privatdetektiv Charlie Parker - er kennt die Dunkelheit in den Herzen der Menschen. Als jedoch der menschenscheue Herod und der schattenhafte Captain auf der Bildfläche erscheinen, muss Parker sich mit dem verbünden, den er am meisten auf der Welt fürchtet . . .
EVIL TAKES MANY FORMS.
PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR CHARLIE PARKER HUNTS THEM ALL.
The border between Maine and Canada is porous. Anything can be smuggled across it: drugs, cash, weapons, people.
Now a group of disenchanted former soldiers has begun its own smuggling operation, and what is being moved is infinitely stranger and more terrifying than anyone can imagine. Anyone, that is, except private detective Charlie Parker, who has his own intimate knowledge of the darkness in men's hearts.
But the soldiers' actions have attracted the attention of the reclusive Herod, a man with a taste for the strange. And where Herod goes, so too does the shadowy figure that he calls the Captain. If he is to try to defeat them, Parker must form an uneasy alliance with a man he fears more than any other, the killer known as the Collector . . .
From the number one Sunday Times and multi-million-copy bestselling author John Connolly comes the most compelling and unsettling Charlie Parker thriller yet.
The Charlie Parker novels can be read and enjoyed in any order. The Whisperers is the ninth book in this globally bestselling series.
