Critics Review
Praise for The Whispered Word:
“A love letter to reading, with sharp characterizations and a smart central mystery.”
--Entertainment Weekly
Praise for Ellery Adams’ previous mystery, The Secret, Book & Scone Society:
“Adams launches an intriguing new mystery series, headed by four spirited amateur sleuths and touched with a hint of magical realism, which celebrates the power of books and women’s friendships. Adams’s many fans, readers of Sarah Addison Allen, and anyone who loves novels that revolve around books will savor this tasty treat.”
—Library Journal (starred review), Pick of the Month
“Adams kicks off a new series featuring strong women, a touch of romance and mysticism, and both the cunning present-day mystery and the slowly revealed secrets of the intriguing heroines’ pasts.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“This affecting series launch from Adams provides all the best elements of a traditional mystery… . Well-drawn characters complement a plot with an intriguing twist or two.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Adams’ new series blends magical realism, smart women, and small-town quirks to create a cozy mystery that doubles as a love letter to books. Readers will fall in love with Nora’s bookstore therapy and Hester’s comfort scones. Not to mention Estella, June, hunky Jed the paramedic, and Nora’s tiny house-slash-converted-train-caboose … a book that mystery fans—and avid readers—won’t want to put down until they have savored every last crumb.”
—RT Book Reviews
