Publisher's Synopsis
When journalist Emma Galloway arrives in Halcyon, a forgotten town unearthed by the draining of a long-submerged reservoir, she is searching for answers-answers about her father's mysterious disappearance and the secrets buried beneath the cracked earth of the ruined town. But as she delves deeper into Halcyon's history, Emma discovers more than she bargained for: whispers that seem to call her name, shadows that move on their own, and a locket that radiates an otherworldly warmth.
Guided by an enigmatic historian, Julian Vance, Emma uncovers traces of a troubled past-a town plagued by debt, betrayal, and dark rituals. Each clue pulls her closer to the truth, but Halcyon's secrets come with a price. Locals warn of curses and vengeful spirits, urging Emma to leave before the town takes more than it gives.
As the whispers grow louder and the line between reality and illusion blurs, Emma must confront the ghosts of Halcyon and the shadows of her own past. But some truths refuse to stay buried, and in Halcyon, the greatest threat may not come from what's hidden, but from what's waiting to be found.
Blending gothic suspense with supernatural intrigue, Whispers in the Water is a chilling tale of loss, legacy, and the relentless pursuit of the unknown.
