THE NOISE is now available!

The last sound you will ever hear…

A note from J.D.

THE NOISE is available everywhere! Stephen King was kind enough to call this one, “Scary!”

Signed hardcover editions are available through RiverRun Bookstore in Portsmouth, NH, and select indie bookstores nationwide. Best part? They’ll ship!

From the Publisher –
A mysterious explosion kills thousands in the Pacific Northwest—and only two young girls survive. The newest in psychological suspense from the minds of James Patterson and J.D. Barker.
Two sisters have always stood together. Now, they’re the only ones left.

In the shadow of Mount Hood, sixteen-year-old Tennant is checking rabbit traps with her eight-year-old sister Sophie when the girls are suddenly overcome by a strange vibration rising out of the forest, building in intensity until it sounds like a deafening crescendo of screams. From out of nowhere, their father sweeps them up and drops them through a trapdoor into a storm cellar. But the sound only gets worse…

A CALLER’S GAME by J.D. Barker is Available for Pre-Order!

DIE HARD meets TALK RADIO in this heart-pounding, relentlessly fast-paced thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of The Fourth Monkey—master of suspense, J.D. Barker.

“I’m going to offer you a choice.”

Controversial satellite radio talk show host, Jordan Briggs, has clawed her way to the top of the broadcast world. She doesn’t hold back, doesn’t spare feelings, and has no trouble sharing what’s on her mind. Her rigorous pursuit of success has come at a price, though. Her marriage is in ruins, she hasn’t spoken to her mother in years, and she’s distanced herself from all those close to her. If not for her young daughter, Charlotte, her personal life would be in complete shambles.

When a subdued man calls into the show and asks to play a game, she sees it as nothing more than a way to kick-start the morning, breathe life into the beginnings of drive-time for her listeners. Against her producer’s advice, she agrees, and unwittingly opens a door to the past.

Live on the air with an audience of millions, what starts out as a game quickly turns deadly—events long thought buried resurface and Jordan Briggs is forced to reconcile with one simple fact—All decisions have consequences.

THE SIXTH WICKED CHILD By J.D. Barker Wins the Earphones Award from AudioFile Magazine!

AudioFile Magazine

The conclusion to the 4MK trilogy is a riveting and creepy audiobook that is totally captivating. Narrators Edoardo Ballerini and Graham Winton reprise their roles to deliver memorable performances. The story focuses on Detective Sam Porter’s efforts to catch crazy, calculating Anson Bishop, the prime suspect in a seemingly never-ending series of killings. But there is much more to their interconnected lives than initially appears, making Porter a prime suspect in the murders he wants to solve. Winton narrates Bishop’s diary, and his delivery is exceptional. Every time you hear his voice, you cringe at the underlying evil. Ballerini is similarly excellent, particularly as he creates unique personalities for the many characters, including FBI agents and Chicago police who rush to solve the crimes. D.J.S. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2020]
