The Whispering Dead

Darcy Coates

A haunted graveyard. A woman with no memory. The dead are whispering... and only she can hear their secrets.

When Keira, alone and on the run, seeks shelter in a forgotten cemetery, she's not just hiding from the living--she's stepping into a realm where the past never sleeps. The only refuge is an abandoned cottage surrounded by gravestones, secrets, and the lingering voices of the unquiet dead.

But Keira's arrival awakens something in the graveyard. She alone can see a desperate spirit--a woman wronged, love betrayed, and a mystery that refuses to be silenced. With danger closing in, Keira must join forces with the town's unlikely residents to uncover the truth, free the restless ghost, and reclaim the life she's lost... if time doesn't run out first.
