Silent Secrets: A Whispering Pines Mystery, Book 7
The quiet time of year as settled over Whispering Pines. For months, Sheriff Jayne O’Shea had been looking forward to a little R&R but now she’s not so sure. What’s she supposed to do with herself? Take up knitting?
When a brawl breaks out at the local pub during the Thanksgiving gathering, a patron is critically wounded. Not the kind of distraction Jayne was looking for. There’s a long list of suspects, but she’s fairly certain it was one of the vigilantes who came to save the village from “that lady sheriff who doesn’t know her job.” But it might be someone from the growing group of villagers who aren’t happy with their sheriff’s performance. Or maybe it's someone who's not even on her list.
The one thing Jayne knows for sure is if she doesn’t get a handle on things, it could be time for her to turn in her badge.

Love the series and the author!
I don't believe Ms. Mcguire even needs my review because the series speaks for itself! I read the first book and I was magically drawn. It felt like I was cozying up with a quilt on a windy day with a cup of tea, coffee or glass of wine and hatting with a friend. By the second and thrid book in the series, Whispering Pines felt like I was coming home! I was that invested in the villagers and their lives and commuinty activity. I love cozy mysteries and this did not let me down. Being a part of the author's fan page only makes the series and her books more personal experience! Thank you, Ms. Mcguire, for inviting me to "live" in Whispering Pines! :) Can't wait for the next invitation!
Shh more secrets!
I read all 7 of the books in the Whispering Pines series. What a great way to spend your time reading a cozy murder mystery! Each book is somewhat stand alone but if you start with book 1 you get each character as they enter the “scene” and the backstory of why our interesting detective is there in the first place. The books are filled with mysterious and quirky characters. From the village residents to visiting tourists, there is always something happening and probably dying to be found! I cannot wait until a new book comes out!
I loved this book
I've enjoyed all the Whispering Pines books, and Silent Secrets didn't disappoint. Winter has set in and Whispering Pines, the busy slightly chaotic village has quieted down. The fact that an angry group of people were lead by a very angry man put Jayne's job at risk, and that upset me a little, but I had little faith in Jayne and she took care of the situation beautifully I can hardly wait until winter has really set in and everyone is snowed in. What a delicious thought of intrigue and mystery in a small Wisconsin town covered in icy snow. Shawn McGuire has written another great book, and I can hardly wait until book #8 comes out.
LOVE this series!
I was so excited to read this next book in the Whispering Pines series. The village is someplace I would love to visit (or live in) and the continuation of Jayne and Tripp's story in this book (as well as the other villagers) was just as satisfying as I anticipated it to be. Can't wait until the next book comes along ~ sooner than later, let's hope!!
Whispering Pines
Love the seiners. Starting book 8. Sad that it is the last, so far. The setting is great. Shawn makes you feel as if you are there. The characters are so perfectly portrayed that you feel that they are your friends, or in some cases, your enemy. You will enjoy reading the series. Very quick read.
Mystical books
I have read all 7 books. I could not put them down. As soon as I finished one I bought the next. Please write more on Whispering Pines. You writing is excellent and who ever proof reads your material does a great job also. I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys a great history and magical book to them.
Love Whispering Pines
I have enjoyed each book I this series. I like the characters, and learning a little about Wicken is so interesting! Can't wait to learn about the soon to come baby! Will be waiting for the next book. Thanks for an enjoyable and different read
Another good story from this author
Another great book with lovely characters that feel like friends! I can hardly wait for the next one. This author gives depth and life to the characters in these books, and the descriptions of the Village paints an interesting picture. I look forward to my next visit to the Village!
Past and Future
Jayne and Tripp hit a speed bump in their relationship and two groups of outsiders visit the town. Thanksgiving brings socialization and tension. Once again, a great read from Shawn.
Expensive for a 1/2” thick book
Love the books and the author but very expensive to buy the whole set, I am on SS and read a book a day. Cost me $75 for the whole set
