Whisper Network

By Chandler Baker

Book Overview

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"Honest, timely, and completely thrilling." --Reese Witherspoon (Reese's Book Club x Hello Sunshine book pick)

"Part page-turning thriller, part smart examination of the #MeToo movement, part feminist rallying cry...Whisper Network is the satisfying "beach read" we've earned."
--The Daily Beast

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 on page one of Chandler Baker's Whisper Network, "none of this would have happened."

"Exciting and sprinkled with razor-sharp insights about what it is to be a woman today, Whisper Network is a witty and timely story that will make you cheer for sisterhood."--Liv Constantine, USA Today bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish

Strong Social Commentary, Defective Diversity

This book was well-written and well-paced. It had a strong twist, and I enjoyed that it centered women in the narrative and took on some tough topics. That being said, the diversity in this book was minimal and the little bit that was present simply perpetuated stereotypes about Latinx women, which I didn’t appreciate. If you can accept the problematic elements of this book, the rest of the story does depict a powerful story of women tacking misogyny that is arguably empowering.
