一位對女員工不軌的男人，一群決定不再忍耐的女人，
一份網上流傳的匿名舉報，引發一個撲朔迷離的謀殺謎團......
#MeToo時代不能錯過的痛快之作！
「如果你們當初曾經認真聆聽我們的聲音，這一切根本不會發生。」
思隆(Sloane)、愛爾狄(Ardie)、葛瑞絲(Grace)，三位傑出的女律師，在生產運動服飾的特魯維(Truviv)公司法務部門任職多年。她們擁有成功的事業、令人稱羨的生活──看似如此，身為「女人」，在男性主導的公司裡，她們因此都被邊緣化、成為外人，三人因此成為好友。
公司裡那些男人並不全是壞人，然而就連其中的好人，似乎也假裝沒有注意到女人受到的不平等待遇，甚至是侵犯與騷擾。而那些真正「壞」的男人，他們的名字與曾經做出的下流舉動，則被員工們編進一份私下在網上流傳的名單裡。
當公司的CEO突然過世，意味著她們的老闆艾姆斯(Ames)，極有可能將接管整家公司。艾姆斯身邊總是圍繞著關於他如何對待女人的傳聞，那些傳聞長久以來總是被高層忽略、漠視、掩藏。思隆、愛爾狄、葛瑞絲也各自曾和艾姆斯有複雜的牽扯。
然而世界改變了，女人們現在正以完全不同的角度看待艾姆斯的升遷。當部門新人凱特琳(Katherine)向思隆三人訴苦，說出她被艾姆斯騷擾的經歷，思隆無法再眼睜睜看著艾姆斯對待新進員工，做出他曾對她做的事。
這一次，女人們不願意再放過這件事，以及這個男人。這一次，她們決定，這一切已經夠了。
然而當思隆將艾姆斯的名字加進「名單」裡，卻引發了她沒有想像到的後果：一場謀殺案。當謊言被揭露、秘密被曝光，並非每個人都能存活下來。而她們作為女人、同事、母親、妻子、朋友，甚至對手的生活，也都將因此被改變。
交織著懸疑感、尖刻而過癮的惡毒幽默，這部作品結合推理與驚悚，帶來讓人無法抗拒的閱讀體驗。而在引人入勝的情節之下，則是蓄積已久，對於正義的渴望與被侵害的憤怒。
千萬別被書名騙了，這部小說可不是什麼低聲細語的輕巧故事。
這是震耳欲聾的怒吼。(文/博客來編譯)
“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
“If only you’d listened to us, none of this would have happened.”
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."
“Don't be fooled by its title. Whisper Network is a primal roar of a novel. Furiously funny and just plain furious, it's as timely as today's headlines and as big-hearted as your best work friend. A fantastic read.” ―Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Time I Lied
