One thought could break the world: The second book in the Whisper duology

Description

The heart-stopping conclusion to Whisper from #1 bestselling and award-winning author Lynette Noni.

I already knew he was a psychopath. But now?
He’s more dangerous than ever.
And I have less than twenty-four hours to stop him.

After escaping Lengard and finding sanctuary with the Remnants, Alyssa Scott is desperate to save those she left behind – and the rest of the world – from the power-hungry scientist, Kendall Vanik. But secrets and lies block her at every turn, and soon Lyss is questioning everything she has ever believed.

When long-lost memories begin to surface and the mysteries of her past continue to grow, Lyss battles to retain her hard-won control. Allies become enemies and enemies become allies, leaving her certain about only two things: when it comes to Speakers, nothing is ever as it seems … and the only person she can trust is herself.

Dive into Whisper and Weapon, an epic duology of young adult dystopian fiction from bestselling author Lynette Noni. Perfect for fans of M.R. Carey, Veronica Roth, and Tahereh Mafi, the Whisper duology is an enthralling story about finding – and controlling – one’s voice and power.
