A novella featuring reluctant psychic Eloise Montgomery. This deep exploration of Eloise is a perfect place for newcomers to be introduced to The Hollows, to experience a sense of place that "rivals Stephen King's Castle Rock for continuity and creepiness." (The News & Observer - Raleigh) THE WHISPERING HOLLOWS is also a source of greater insight and understanding of connections for those already drawn deep into The Hollows. Part One: The Whispers On an ordinary day in The Hollows, a terrible accident claims the lives of Eloise Montgomery's husband and oldest daughter and leaves Eloise in a coma. While recovering, she experiences her first psychic vision. Struggling to understand her frightening new abilities, Eloise is torn between helping her grief-stricken younger daughter move on and the work she feels compelled to do now-heed the tortured whispers of lost women and girls calling for her.
