Product Description
From Amazon.com
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
