Rose McFarland is a trained killer—a Memphis S.W.A.T. sniper with a secret. Her team knows about the burn scars that lurk under her clothes, a legacy of the house fire that killed her father and brother sixteen years before. Her supervisors know that she spent two years in a rehabilitative facility, healing and learning to cope with the emotional trauma of the fire. But no one knows about the visions that drove her there, angry spirits that consumed her childhood, alienated her from her family and made her doubt her own sanity—the Whispers. When Charlie Akers, a half-brother she never knew, ends up on the wrong side of Rose's rifle, she unwittingly sets off a chain of events that puts her family in the middle of increasingly dangerous paranormal visitations. Charlie won’t stay dead, and soon ghosts from Rose’s past are creeping back into her life. People she’s killed in the line of duty, family she thought long buried, every one of them under the influence of Rose’s greatest fear, the Whispers themselves. As the walls between our world and the world of the dead grow thin, Rose will have to face her old nightmares to stop the Whispers from breaking free. If she can’t, it won’t just be Memphis that falls to the dead—there will be no safe place left on earth for the living.

So, any better way of beating the dumps??? Why not something that makes your heart beat in fear, from the unknown, especially the supernatural............with the hope of beating away this funk.........I started reading this............
Unfortunately, being scared was not I had in mind after finishing this book, more like second chances, Everyone needs a second chance, this much is true(I believe this fervently, unfortunately, I squandered all of it).
What if you were given an opportunity, to right some wrong, to be able to talk to someone you loved so much that was taken from you, the ability to become someone better........would you???
After the last line was done, I tried hard to think of anything that made my hair stand on end, goosebumps........the only feeling I had was sadness, loneliness and above all, if only.......Should this be a paranormal book, the feeling is forced, this could be anyone's life story, injected with something beyond our normal view, again we do not need the supernatural to frighten us, Humans definitely are worse than any............
I love Ms. Hightower's way of writing, clear and you can feel the emotion, just not what the premise gave us, will I go back to this if there is a sequel.........Yes, that something this book gave a glimpse of is good enough for me, but scared........No.
