It started with a whisper...

Secrets are currency, and one juicy quote can destroy a career. In this cutthroat world of celebrity gossip, four unlikely friends rise to the top, armed with ambition, charm, and a Rolodex of the powerful and problematic. They trade in scandal, survive by instinct, and thrive on betrayal.

But as the headlines get bigger and the stakes grow higher, the cost of success becomes harder to ignore. Behind every blind item is a truth, behind every scoop, a sacrifice. And when the gossip gets personal, even the most loyal friendships can't escape unscathed.

It Started with a Whisper is a razor-sharp tale about the business of gossip, the hunger for relevance, and the blurred line between loyalty and ambition. Addictive, fast-paced, and full of bite, it's the story behind the stories--and the people who live to tell them.
