House of Whispers
'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. The eerie presence of the whispers, coupled with a string of unexpected and tragic deaths in the neighborhood, paints a dark and ominous picture. Suspicion falls upon a strange, unsettling individual who has recently arrived at the house. As the protagonist attempts to solve the mystery of the whispers and the deaths, she confronts a web of deceit, hidden motives, and forbidden romances. The truth, she discovers, lies in the past, in secrets buried deep within the history of the house. With her wits and courage, she must unravel the past and confront the forces behind the whispers to save herself and her loved ones from a chilling fate.Book Details
