One word could change the world: The first book in the Whisper duology

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Whisper is a compelling story about a young girl held captive in a secret underground facility and the risks she must take to harness the power of her voice.

‘Lengard is a secret government facility for extraordinary people,’ they told me. ‘It’s for people just like you.’

I believed them. That was my mistake. There isn’t anyone else in the world like me.

I’m different. I’m an anomaly. I’m a monster.

For two years, six months, fourteen days, eleven hours and sixteen minutes … Subject Six-Eight-Four, ‘Jane Doe’, has been locked away and experimented on, without uttering a single word.

Life at Lengard follows a strict, torturous routine that has never changed.

Until now.

When Jane is assigned a new – and unexpectedly kind – evaluator, her resolve begins to crack, despite her best efforts. As she uncovers the truth about Lengard’s mysterious ‘programme’, Jane discovers that her own secret is at the heart of a sinister plot. And one wrong move, one wrong word, could change the world.

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.

Desperate for more? Explore the whole thrilling series!

The Whisper duology:

  • Book 1: Whisper
  • Book 2: Weapon

Perfect for:

  • Fans of dystopias, thrillers, and edge-of-your-seat mysteries!
  • Readers of young adult fiction.
  • Gift givers looking for their next dystopian obsession.
  • Anyone with a love for books with strong female leads.
