About this listen
A suspenseful Gothic fiction book set in Cornwall, England during the early 19th century.
In the heart of Cornwall in the year 1829, the eerie story of the Genna Manor and its haunted inhabitants unfolds. As the book opens, the reader is introduced to the dying matriarch Mrs. Minor, her loyal servants, and the enigmatic housemaid Angela Heston. The tension builds as Mrs. Minor entrusts Angela with a disturbing task which inextricably entangles her in the Manor's sinister past. The secrets of the Manor, once shrouded in mystery, are slowly revealed after the consequential departure of Angela. The elusive Heston escapes with a heavy heart, laden with the dread of unresolved secrets, and leaving the reader to navigate an eerily supernatural setting stamped with omens and threatening prophecies.The mystery of the Manor deepens...
With the introduction of the dauntless Rosamond Minor, the narrative shifts to her quest for truth. Supported by her husband and Uncle Joseph, she confronts the ghastly reality of the Manor's past and bravely seeks to mend the fractured family. As the truth seeping from Angela's hidden letter comes to light, the threads weaving the characters together start revealing a tale of deception and echoes of family tragedies.*Immerse yourself in the revelation of truth and justice embodied in the form of the Minor's struggle against a conniving relative.*
“The Darkest Secret” not only ventures into the mysterious world of supernatural threats but also sheds light on the unyielding human spirit, integrity, and the moral courage that triumphs over wealth. In closing, the story finds both rest and renewal in the tranquil churchyard of Porthgenna. Here, our favorites--Rosamond, Anthony, and Uncle Joseph--bid adieu to Angela as they commit to a future strengthened by love and truth.Book highlights:
