死神低语 达西·科茨 这是一部轻松有趣的悬疑/鬼故事。它最吸引人的地方在于主人公本身就是一个谜。虽然这并非一个惊悚至极的故事，但它情节引人入胜，人物刻画生动鲜明。主人公失忆的谜团，以及鬼魂的存在，共同构成了一部既有趣又惊悚的佳作。
这个 故事 begins with our primary character, Keira. She is a young lady waking up in the woods at night, with total memory loss. All she can recall is her name (and the lone thing she has is a worn-out photo and the clothes she was wearing). Far off rifle shots and men’s voices lead her to believe she is being pursued. However, she does not have the foggiest idea why or by whom. The town’s pastor (whom she does not even know) saves her. He even shelters her for the night in the empty grounds keeper’s cabin on the edge of a graveyard. As she gets comfortable for the night for a much necessary rest, she sees the ghost of a young lady standing just outside her window.
I really liked the setting of Blighty, an interesting little town. What 神秘 and secrets does it hold? We are introduced with a few local people. I must say, everybody was so likeable! You ordinarily do not have a book where every character is fun, however it’s valid for this book. The main set of characters are superbly quirky.
Besides that what I truly adored about this book is the set up. I liked how the set up was sprinkled all through the book 宁 than all packed into the beginning. I truly love this technique since it feels naturally balanced. When you have a novel that sets up everything in the start, it can feel slowed down later. But, in this book, nothing was hurried to be set up. It is spread all through the book and it won’t ever drag. Pacing was simply on point.
每个角落都有秘密，我从未感到疲倦。 达西·科茨 (Darcy Coates) 的《死者低语》(The Whispering Dead) 引人入胜，它不断让我想要更多。 确实有很多悬而未决的问题。 有些人可能觉得太多了，也许我有点片面，但对我来说，这只会让我对第二本书更加好奇。
