Product Description

From Amazon

After 30 years, Sloan Reynolds is about to meet the father she never knew. Claiming that his ill health has led him to attempt reconciliation, Carter Reynolds invites Sloan to meet him and his other daughter, Paris, in the glamorous world of Palm Beach, Florida. With all the sense and courage that her job as a cop requires, Sloan refuses the invitation, convinced that nothing good could come from meeting her absentee father. But when FBI agent Paul Richardson intervenes and explains that Reynolds is under suspicion, she agrees to enter the world of the social elite in order to help investigate her father.

Prepared to hate Palm Beach and all its inhabitants, Sloan is surprised to find herself drawn towards Paris, her cranky great-grandmother, and Paris's neighbors, the Maitland family--particularly Noah Maitland. Noah has all the characteristics of Mr. Perfect, which is exactly what scares Sloan. How could someone so sophisticated, smart, and handsome be attracted to her?

But just as the two begin to explore their attraction, Sloan's hopes for her new family and friends crumble. Paul closes in on the dark truth about Carter Reynolds and his suspicions expand to include Noah. Soon, Sloan is an unwilling accomplice in the investigation against Noah, and when a horrible murder occurs, she just may be the next victim.

Bestselling author Judith McNaught has all the ingredients for a great romantic thriller in Night Whispers: the handsome and not-quite-aboveboard hero, the optimistic lady-cop, a handful of exotic and unreadable socialites, and all in all she delivers the goods. Even so, the fact that nearly everyone couples off at the end feels slightly trite, and the motivations of the true killer are somewhat unconvincing. Apart from these minor flaws, Night Whispers remains an entertaining and certainly worthwhile read. --Nancy R.E. O'Brien --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

From Library Journal

Sloan Reynolds's simple life as a detective with the Bar Harbour, FL, police department is turned upside down when the father that abandoned her returns to her world and decides he wants to get to know her. At the same time an FBI agent shows up claiming that her father is involved in fraudulent activities (and perhaps murder) and asks her to help in the investigation. Little does Sloan know that she will end up being framed for murder and falling in love with a person she believes is helping her father in his criminal dealings. Though the premise seems interesting, the story is not; it meanders along to a predictable conclusion. The abridgment may be to blame as it seems that much is left out that might help make the tale more suspenseful. Reader Enid Graham does a fine job with what she hasAwhich is not a lot. Since McNaught is a popular author (Perfect, Audio Reviews, LJ 6/1/93), this may be a tape to buy for patron demand; otherwise, it's not a necessary purchase.ADanna Bell-Russel, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as suspenseful as I had hoped, Mar 26 2004
This review is from: Night Whispers (Mass Market Paperback)
I love Judith McNaught's writing ~~ but this book is definitely not one of her better novel. Don't get me wrong, this is perfectly entertainable and wonderfully written, and it's great for a beach read ~~ but it's not her best novel.

Sloan is a police officer in a small Florida town ~~ separated from her father and sister ever since she was an infant. One day she receives an invitation to meet with her father, a world-known socialite and her sister, Paris. She wasn't planning to go till the FBI agent persuaded her to go, taking him with her. And that is when the story starts.

It is a sweet story ~~ but not very suspenseful and not very intriguing ~~ but still, you find yourself reading it anyhow since Judith manages to snare you into the story. It's a sweet novel.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Too Good, Not Too Bad..., Feb 16 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Whispers (Mass Market Paperback)
I must first confess that this is the first book I have ever read by Judith McNaught and I found it to be quite mediocre. There was great sexual tension between Noah and Sloan but other than that there wasn't much left. The death of the great-grandmother was almost too rushed. The book seemed full of detail at first and then the ending seemed to be rushed as well. It was as if the author was running out of paper to write her story on. It was just an average story in my opinion.

4.0 out of 5 stars Never read McNaught before, but enjoyed the book, Jan 2 2004
This review is from: Night Whispers (Mass Market Paperback)
I've never read Judith McNaught before, I've had this book on my shelf for five years and I finally got around to reading it. I was not disappointed, it was what I expected. I enjoyed the the characters; Sloan who is a no-nonsense cop & her slew of friends. I liked the sexual energy that was between her & her cop friend Jess & then also Jess & Sloan's other friend Sara. I also enjoyed the whole plot of her being estranged from her father & sister and now after 20some years getting a call from her father & one from the FBI. I was also anticipating how it would turn out- was her father really a criminal, would her sister & grandmother open up to her? And was the family friend Noah a criminal as well?

It wasn't the best book I've read, but I wasn't disappointed either. It's kind of a cross between a romance & mystery book.
