About this listen

From the author of Lady’s Rock, The Unreliable Death of Lady Gange and The Green Lady, a tale of the sisterhood, heartbreak and resilience of the Scottish women on the World War II home front

Clova, Scotland, 1942. The midst of the Second World War. Sisters Nell and Effie Anderson live together in the Old Schoolhouse. Effie is a teacher, while Nell works as a postwoman, delivering news – often of the worst – from the frontline to her neighbours. Though they love and care for one another, there are unspoken tensions and mysteries that put distance between them.

Then, a plane carrying Canadian and British soldiers’ crashes over their village, and the only surviving soldier stumbles up to their front door. In his pocket is a photo that will set in motion a chain of events threatening to uncover their families’ generations-old secrets.

Told across a dual timeline of Effie and Nell’s adult years through World War II and their adolescence during World War I, Whispers in the Glen is a story about secrets, lies – and the dangers of keeping them hidden.
