Mientras la anfitriona se divide entre sus invitados y su incontrolable hijo Xavier, la anciana Mara, que ha preferido no acudir, observa la fiesta desde su jard???n, buscando los aviones de papel que Xavier le lanza por la ventana cada noche. Cuando la madre pierde los nervios con el ni???o, ninguno le da importancia, una decisi???n que cuestionar???n cuando, meses m???s tarde, el peque???o caiga misteriosamente desde su ventana. Mientras Xavier lucha por su vida, las mujeres de la calle Harlow se enfrentan a un dilema: continuar como si nada hubiera pasado o hacer caso al rumor de su intuici???n, que destapar??? secretos que ninguna quer???a afrontar. Un thriller estremecedor que explora la amistad femenina, la envidia, los deseos potenciados y acallados por la maternidad y la inexorabilidad de la propia intuici???n. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Expertly, subtly and powerfully rendered....[The Whispers] delivers a sucker-punch ending you'll have to read twice to believe."--The New York Times Book Review "[An] electrifying...razor-sharp page-turner." --Carley Fortune, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After Featured in summer reading recommendations by Good Morning America, TIME, ELLE, The Washington Post & more From the New York Times bestselling author of The Push, a propulsive thriller about four families whose lives are changed when the unthinkable happens--and what is lost when we give in to our own worst impulses. On Harlow Street, the well-to-do neighborhood couples and their children gather for a catered barbecue as the summer winds down; drinks continue late into the night. Everything is fabulous until the picture-perfect hostess explodes in fury because her son disobeys her. Everyone at the party hears her exquisite veneer crack--loud and clear. Before long, that same young boy falls from his bedside window in the middle of the night. And then, his mother can only sit by her son's hospital bed, where she refuses to speak to anyone, and his life hangs in the balance. What happens next, over the course of a tense three days, as each of these women grapple with what led to that terrible night? Exploring envy, women's friendships, desire, and the intuitions that we silence, The Whispers is a chilling novel that marks Audrain as a major women's fiction talent.
