Dark Palace: The Whispers

By: Tasha Sheipline

Narrated by: Emily Mount

“Not every emotion we feel belongs to us.”

For no one is that more true than for those who hear the whispers of the past. Adelia Grey just happens to be one of those people.

Adelia Grey would consider herself an unremarkable girl born into a remarkable family. Plagued by crippling anxiety in her mundane life, she finds herself compelled by the opportunity to spend a summer abroad, with her grandmother, in her apartments at Hampton Court Palace. As soon as she arrives, she finds that the dark chaos of her mind is only compounded by the rich history of the Tudor palace.

Her summer of self-discovery is complicated further when she meets Daniel, an attractive young Oxford professor, who is spending the summer investigating the centuries-old mysterious death of Amy Robsart Dudley.

With the help of Daniel and her eccentric grandmother, Adelia may just find that she holds a secret gift that may bring light to solving a mystery that has baffled historians for nearly 400 years.

Captivating

This story is captivating from the start and is appealing to anyone, from the hopeless romantic to the intellectual historian.

Kinda loving the ghost whisperer vibes !

Ok I really loved the overall vibes. I liked how the FMC developed her gift and how things progressed. I loved the ending and wished there was more of that in the book through out instead of such a slow build up but overall it was a good story and a sweet love story as well. A young woman figuring out what she wanted and how to deal with the life she has been living and wants to live.

The perfect summer read

This book was the perfect mix of romance and mystery. With relatable characters, I found myself invested in their relationship as well as interested in their endeavors! I can’t wait to listen to Tasha’s next book!
