THE WHISPERING
The whispering wild will take your child if you dare to look away…
Callum Haffenden swears he’ll never return to Granite Creek. But, thirty years after a life-shattering accident, he’s thrust back into the clutches of far north Queensland and a local legend he’s worked hard to forget.
A local man has gone missing in the rainforest, and when his body shows up at the notorious boulders Callum suspects foul play.
In his search for answers, the truth of a decades-old mystery of two missing girls begins to surface, and in a town the size of Granite Creek, everyone has something to hide. Suspects soon begin to pile up.
With a burgeoning urge to protect his teenage daughter from the same fate, Callum battles with the growing sound of The Whispering burrowing into his ears and fights to resist the lure of the rainforest. After all, everyone knows that the worst things in the rainforest are those unseen.
