THE SILENT MANSION: A Detective Story of Secrets, Lies and a Hidden Truth
About this audiobook
ABOUT THE BOOK
When Detective Elias Vale receives a letter bearing a wax seal that has not been used for eighty years, he expects an ordinary missing-person investigation. Instead, the letter leads him to Blackthorn Hill, where an abandoned mansion appears to breathe beneath the moonlight.
The mansion has no owner, no electricity and no recorded residents. Yet every night at midnight, a light burns in an upstairs room. Footprints appear on locked floors. A clock moves backward. A portrait changes its expression. And somewhere behind the walls, a bell rings for someone who has been dead for generations.
Elias is joined by Mira Ashcroft, an archivist who knows more about the mansion than she admits. Together they discover that the estate hides a magical mechanism called the Silent Heart—a device created to conceal one terrible truth from the world.
The deeper they investigate, the more the mansion tests their memories, their trust and their courage. Solving the mystery may require them to enter places that exist only between moments in time.
