A Victorian era murder. A modern-day family researcher. Can she unravel a governess's entanglement in a dark family secret?
Ireland, 1895. Polly Brady hopes to escape her oppressive past by accepting the position of governess at Colgrannagh, an old house in the Wicklow mountains. But when she learns her employer's botanist husband died in unusual circumstances, she is drawn into a poisonous deception that threatens her future.
2022. After the breakdown of her marriage and the loss of her job, Fiona Foley is determined to start afresh with a research project about a pioneering female doctor from the 19th century. When a shocking discovery is unearthed in the garden, her investigation takes a more sinister twist.
As Fiona delves deeper into the family's past, she finds startling evidence of a tragic event that occurred one August night over a century before...
With the help of a secret game played by the children and an intricate embroidery of the herb garden passed down through generations, can Fiona succeed in uncovering the truth?
With long-buried secrets, dual timeline suspense, and surprising twists and turns, The Whispering River is the second novel in the Foley Family Mysteries series but can also be read as a standalone.
