Fifteen years after Lisa goes missing, her younger brother, Sam, gets a strange phone call that leads him and his girlfriend, Phoebe, to discover a book, supposedly written by the King of the Fairies, that Lisa used as her bible to cross over, and which prompts Sam and Phoebe to meet up with Sam’s cousin, Evie, to see if they can figure out what happened to Lisa. Nothing is as it seems from that moment on, and Phoebe’s longtime fear of a dark man in the shadows seeps back after she discovers, in true woo-woo fashion, that she is pregnant
“Don’t Breathe A Word” has received critical acclaim for its intricate and fascinating plot, with many people claiming it’s one of those books that can’t be put down once picked up.
