A young man is haunted by a mythological specter bent on stealing everything he loves in this unsettling horror from the author of Indian Burial Ground and Sisters of the Lost Nation. For fear of summoning evil spirits, Native superstition says you should never, ever whistle at night. Henry Hotard was on the verge of fame, gaining a following and traction with his eerie ghost-hunting videos. Then his dreams came to a screeching halt. Now, he's learning to navigate a new life in a wheelchair, back on the reservation where he grew up, relying on his grandparents care while he recovers. And hes being haunted. His girlfriend, Jade, insists he just needs time to adjust to his new reality as a quadriplegic, that its his traumatized mind playing tricks on him, but Henry knows better. As the specter haunting him creeps closer each night, Henry battles to find a way to endure, to rid himself of the horror stalking him. Worried that this dread might plague him forever, he realizes the only way to exile his phantom is by confronting his troubled past and going back to the events that led to his injury. It all started when he whistled at night....

I liked this even though I wish it was smoother. We follow Henry Hotard in 2 timelines. One is him as part of a ghost hunting team on the up and up, with his girlfriend Jade, and best friend, Toad. The other is him a year later dealing with his new reality after a crash where he is confined to a wheelchair. Before the crash there was new ghost hunting case involving whistling, and now when he‘s alone he hears the same whistling months later. Pick.

This is an interesting book about deception and regret, and the pain that is wrought when they‘re ignored. Definitely an interesting read.
Henry Hotard is a young man with a deep thirst for fame. With his girlfriend Jade and best friend Toad he creates ghost hunting videos that gain a large internet following. Then they encounter the Whistler, a nightmare from their past, Henry is badly injured, and he‘s being hunted. Good twist at the end.
