Whispers of the Shadow World

By Anwyn Brooks

🔍 A spellbound summer, a mysterious key, and a secret world waiting to be awakened.

🎬 The cat who knows more than he lets on in our gothic tale...

🔮 Whispers of the Shadow World is a haunting, high-stakes fantasy set in a crumbling seaside mansion where family secrets are the least of Emily’s problems. With her tabby cat Cheshire by her side, she uncovers a hidden key, a shadow world, and a long-lost magic she never knew was hers.


As the veil between realms begins to tear, she must work with unexpected allies—some human, some not—to stop a storm of dark forces from overtaking both worlds.
