The whisper place A thriller

Book - 2025

"The latest thriller in the USA Today bestselling series starring Max Summerlin and Jonah Kendrick, an unlikely pair of private investigators who specialize in finding people who don't want to be found. How do you find a woman who doesn't exist? As a former police officer and a psychic detective, Max Summerlin and Jonah Kendrick may not be the most conventional business partners. But together, they have decades of investigative experience, and opening Celina Investigations, their own PI firm, feels like a natural decision. When a man walks into their office searching for his missing girlfriend without a past or even a name, Max and Jonah realize their newest client may present their hardest challenge yet. Their first task: fi...nd out why he refuses to go to the police. Meanwhile, a woman drives across the country with all her belongings packed into a car, desperate to escape a dark past. The question posed to the fleeing woman, Max, and Jonah is the same: Can you ever really change your life? From a 1980s-inspired bakery to a horrifying house at the edge of the woods, Max and Jonah unearth the missing woman's shocking past, and in the process, put themselves directly in the path of the terror she was trying to outrun"-- Provided by publisher.

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Ex-cop Max Summerlin and psychic Jonah Kendrick try to track down a missing woman in their solid latest outing from Mejia (following A World of Hurt). After cracking a handful of cases together, Max and Jonah have established Celina Investigations in Iowa City with hopes of maintaining a steady client stream. One afternoon, Charlie Ashlock walks through the door. Charlie's girlfriend, Kate, has vanished, and he claims to be respecting her wishes by not seeking help from the police. Confused by Charlie's actions but enticed by the massive sum he offers up front, Max agrees to look into the matter. It's a particularly challenging assignment for Jonah--whose psychic gifts are draining and unreliable in the best of circumstances--because Charlie doesn't even know Kate's last name. Interspliced with the main investigation are chapters from the perspective of a woman on the run from a danger that Max and Jonah might be walking right into. Mejia continues to sketch Max and Jonah's friendship with attunement to the sarcastic, beer-drinking rhythms of male bonding, and her plotting is as twisty as ever. This series continues to impress.
