Fleeing Manhattan for the summer with her seven-year-old son, Charlie, Annie settles into a rambling upstate country house arranged for her by long-time editor Fin. From the start, strange occurrences plague Annie and Charlie, among them the sound of a train on a nearby discontinued rail line. Add to the list their nearest neighbors across the street \u2014 elderly Daniel and Dolores (who hasn\u2019t been \u201cright\u201d since something happened to her in the house Annie\u2019s now renting) \u2014 and an old toy train Charlie finds in a box inside a locked shed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tortured by guilt over how her bestselling Pierce the Penguin character had caused the tragedy, Annie\u2019s not sure she\u2019ll ever write again, but her optimistic editor has stocked a writing \u201cstudio\u201d for her in the house, and soon she\u2019s sharing the creative space with Charlie and his new (old) toy train. Accustomed to drawing her own characters, she\u2019s shocked by her first new creation, a trenchcoated-wearing, man-shaped rat-wolf awakening her memory of a long-past eerie encounter. Meanwhile, Charlie\u2019s frightening tendency to sleepwalk \u2014 induced by the trauma of his dad\u2019s death \u2014 is rekindled instead of vanquished by their new surroundings. Annie\u2019s attempts to make their new world safe spiral out of control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a parallel story set in the past, shortly after the September 11 attacks, the nearby tiny town of Lucknow, Vermont, is further unnerved by the disappearance of two men, and typically earnest police chief Harry Cook is feeling the pressure \u2014 is he capable of doing his job? When one of the missing is found horrifically <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">deboned<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> like a chicken, Harry\u2019s faced with the daunting prospect of ferreting out a serial killer. Then a third man \u2014 the town\u2019s harmless, recently down-on-his-luck drunk \u2014 goes missing, and Harry finds reason to suspect that the garrulous Mr. Nabler, owner of Mr. Choo Choo\u2019s toy train store, may not be what he seems. And nobody seems to remember just when they noticed the shop\u2019s presence.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, soon he notes a pattern in which toy trains may just figure in \u201cbad things\u201d happening to good people. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happened to Lucknow after the fall of 2001 now, in the present, affects Annie and her son, whose obsession with both the old train set and the bicycle she bought for him will lead them to a ghost town, and an encounter with the ancient evil that awaits. The reason is a genuine surprise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Annie and Harry share the best of protagonists\u2019 qualities by managing to be both engaging and convincing in their responses to the horrors that confront them. Barclay juggles their two timelines with ease, building suspense as Annie\u2019s story and Harry\u2019s inexorably entwine around the dubiously goofy figure of train huckster Edwin Nabler, Mr. Choo Choo himself. Despite a minor timing glitch relating to the formation of the Department of Homeland Security (the kind of error anyone who plays in the past is liable to make), the story\u2019s forward motion <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">chugs along <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(shall we say) to a satisfyingly eerie climax. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whistle<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is not fast-and-furious, modern-style graphic horror, but rather what the youngsters might term a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">slow burn<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026 which isn\u2019t at all a flaw. I clearly remember that my first encounter with a newcomer named King, back in my high school days, was also a slow burn until about page 80, after which <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019Salem\u2019s Lot<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> burned plenty hot, making me a fan for life. Barclay similarly deploys touches of the gruesome strategically to jolt the reader. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But along with openly referencing Bradbury\u2019s dark tales, one might also be reminded of both Charles Grant\u2019s \u201cquiet\u201d horror and Dean Koontz\u2019s early work, all of which indicates that Linwood Barclay\u2019s own tendencies lie in exploring the inexplicably sinister aspects of the smell of burning leaves, the sound of distant train whistles, and the screech of a locomotive\u2019s four-six-two wheels skimming along the iron rails as they fuel the kind of delicious fright of which nightmares are made. Recommended for readers who\u2019ve not already been jaded by today\u2019s tendency to overemphasize the grotesque\u2026 and who appreciate that sometimes less is indeed more&#8230;<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whistle<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may not break new ground but clearly signals Barclay\u2019s intention to explore the darker side of his imagination.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whistle by Linwood Barclay William Morrow (May 2025) Reviewed by W.D.
