'House of Whispers' Summary
The novel unfolds in a shadowy, Victorian England. A young lady, her identity unrevealed, and her blind father live in a remote, isolated house shrouded in mystery. This grand estate is known as the 'House of Whispers,' and whispers of a sinister legend permeate the air. The whispers themselves are a tangible presence, a haunting echo of secrets and tragedies from the past. The legend claims those who hear the whispers suffer a sudden and untimely fate. As the story unfolds, the young lady grapples with both the unnerving whispers and the growing sense of danger surrounding the house.
