The River Whispers

De: Deb Jordan

Narrado por: Katherine Littrell, Nikki Thomas, Andrew Cutcliffe

Two best friends. One tragic accident. One deadly secret.

Sasha’s life was perfect—until the car crash that destroyed her career as a concert pianist and her friendship with Abby, the one who was driving. Consumed by grief and blame, Sasha cut Abby out of her life. But when Abby’s body is found floating in a river and a newborn baby is abandoned nearby, Sasha is thrust into a deadly mystery she can’t ignore.

As Detective Sam Tierny—Sasha’s ex—unravels the case, dark secrets emerge: Abby was running from her abusive ex, a man willing to kill to keep her silent. Ignoring Abby’s desperate calls for help, Sasha never knew how much danger her friend was in—until now.

With a killer closing in, Sasha must confront her guilt and risk everything to uncover the truth. Set amidst the haunting beauty of Western Australia’s vineyards, The River Whispers is a gripping tale of betrayal, loss, and the fight for redemption that will keep you on edge until the very end.
