The whispers [Book Club Set, 5 copies] NO PATRON HOLDS : a novel

Summary: A propulsive page-turner about four suburban families whose lives are changed when the unthinkable happens--and what is lost when good people make unconscionable choices, With The Push, Ashley Audrain gave us a transgressive novel about motherhood. Now she delves into the secretive world of suburban women who hide dark truths, and the devastating incident that ties them together. On Harlow Lane, several well-to-do neighbourhood couples and their children gather for a catered barbecue as the summer winds down; drinks continue late into the night. Everything is fabulous until the picture-perfect hostess catches her son disobeying her, and soon everyone at the party hears her exquisite veneer crack--loud and clear. Before long, that same child falls from his bedside window and is rushed to the hospital in a coma. The story spins out over the course of one week, in the alternating voices of three women as they face what led to what happened one terrible night. Exploring the intuitions that we silence, the complexities of our closest friendships, the danger of envy, and what happens when we put our needs ahead of our children's, The Whispers is another stunning novel that marks Audrain as a major women's fiction talent.
