Publisher's Summary

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER!

“Honest, timely, and completely thrilling.” (Reese Witherspoon (Reese’s Book Club x Hello Sunshine book pick)

Sloane, Ardie, Grace, and Rosalita have worked at Truviv, Inc., for years. The sudden death of Truviv’s CEO means their boss, Ames, will likely take over the entire company. Each of the women has a different relationship with Ames, who has always been surrounded by whispers about how he treats women. Those whispers have been ignored, swept under the rug, hidden away by those in charge. But the world has changed, and the women are watching this promotion differently. This time, when they find out Ames is making an inappropriate move on a colleague, they aren’t willing to let it go. This time, they’ve decided enough is enough.

Sloane and her colleagues’ decision to take a stand sets in motion a catastrophic shift in the office. Lies will be uncovered. Secrets will be exposed. And not everyone will survive. All of their lives - as women, colleagues, mothers, wives, friends, even adversaries - will change dramatically as a result.

"If only you had listened to us,” they tell us in Chandler Baker's Whisper Network, “none of this would have happened."

Enjoyed - well done

I really loved how she weaves in the challenges faced by working moms and women in today’s workplace. Well done - funny, yet poignant. All tied together with intrigue and suspense. Great job

More substance than you’d think

I think the author really gets the complicated world women have to navigate. The characters are flawed which make them much more relatable than they first seem. Overall, very thought-provoking and timely.

strong message

I enjoyed this book for the strong message it sent to women. Look out for each other and speak up! It was predictable, but enjoyable.

Why are we whispering?

This clever, timely account of the insidious nature of sexual harassment and its ramifications makes for an enjoyable and thought-provoking experience. The girlfriend nature of the main characters rings true as does the challenges of work/life balance for women. For both women of means and those without, being a woman in the workforce and beyond comes with a different set of rules and limitations than experienced by men. The shared experiences of all the women in the novel exemplified this reality.

The pace and unexpected turns compelled me to listen at every opportunity. While some of the characters may have been a bit too stereotypic, they represented more than a single person.

I especially appreciated the epilogue. As Ms. Baker asserts, it's time to stop whispering. Whose secrets are we keeping anyway?

I wasn't sure at the beginning but glad I finished

Highly recommend! Started off slow and was a bit confused by the characters, but then you get to know everyone and it gets so much better. Every woman should read it and pass it on to their girlfriend, sister, daughter! It's real! Make sure to listen right to the end.

Meh

Just wasn’t my cup of tea I guess! I found it slow at times. I actually stopped it and only restarted it I the later.

Not what I expected but good!

It didn’t fit my love Liane Moriarty books like I had hope but it’s still a good mystery with a few twists as bd turns. It does however hit the nail on the head with confronting everyday issues and moral conflicts still lived by woman today.
