Mr. Whisper: A Thriller (The Specialists Book 1)

Four investigators combine forces to confront a master of online mind control in this thriller by Andrew Mayne, author of The Final Equinox. Investigator Sloan McPherson discovers a frightened vagrant with amnesia living in a Florida swamp. The man disappeared from Oregon as a teenager and has been missing for thirty years. To understand how he ended up three thousand miles from home, Sloan partners with two colleagues: FBI agent Jessica Blackwood and scientist Theo Cray. Blackwood and Cray uncover a troubling connection. A female classmate of the drifter vanished at the same time decades earlier. Their high school journals reveal both teenagers were influenced by an enigmatic figure they called Mr. Whisper, under whose control they followed his instructions. Corporate security expert Brad Trasker joins the investigation, his own trail leading toward the manipulator's operations. Jessica, Theo, Sloan, and Brad must use their distinct expertise to stop a dangerous adversary. Whether Mr. Whisper's decades of control over vulnerable people can be broken remains uncertain.
