Publisher's Summary
Whistling Tor is a place of secrets: a mysterious, wooded hill housing the crumbling fortress belonging to Anluan - a chieftain whose name is spoken throughout the region in tones of revulsion and bitterness. A curse lies over Anluan's family and his people, and the woods themselves hold a perilous force whose every whisper threatens doom.
Then the young scribe Caitrin appears in Anluan's garden, admiring the rare plant known as heart's blood. Retained to sort through entangled family documents, Caitrin brings about unexpected changes in the household, casting a hopeful light against the despairing shadows.
But even as Caitrin brings solace to Anluan, and the promise of something more between them, he remains in thrall to the darkness surrounding Whistling Tor. To free Anluan's burdened soul, Caitrin must unravel the web of sorcery woven by his ancestors before it claims his life - and their love....

Great story
You get use to the narrator if you stick it out. Great story, very different.

a lovely story
I loved this story and I loved the narrator. The narrator's interesting inflections in how the story was read were great, often I hear narrators read in a monotone, and there's nothing worse! Even a great story can be made boring when read that way, not so with this one. The story moved along nicely, a few twists and turns (interesting, sorta saw them coming though) but nothing too tragic happened and it was a nice little story in the end. Both kept me wanting more. I'll be keeping an eye out for more from both author and narrator.

Good story overall, some twists (not very surprising) Well read.
Although I really like YA fiction this felt a bit too simple, too many repetitions of explanations and even events. An worthy underlying serious reference to the effects of DV it still felt too long and slow. Maybe an early work by this author? I will definitely try her other books.

Liked it more than I thought
Wasn’t sure at first because I didn’t realize that it was part fantasy when I downloaded it. Once I did though, I really enjoyed it. Sometimes the narrator was a bit grating but not so much to put me off entirely.
