The Whispered Word

By: Ellery Adams

Narrated by: Cris Dukehart

Nora Pennington, the owner of Miracle Books, believes that a well-chosen novel can bring healing and hope. But she and the rest of the members of the Secret, Book, and Scone Society know that, sometimes, practical help is needed, too. Such is the case with the reed-thin girl hiding in the fiction section of Nora's store, wearing a hospital ID and a patchwork of faded bruises. She calls herself Abilene, and, although Nora and her friends offer work, shelter, and a supportive ear, their guest isn't ready to divulge her secrets.

But when a customer is found dead in an assumed suicide, Nora uncovers a connection that points to Abilene...as either a suspect or another target. When a second death hits town, Nora and her intrepid friends must help the greenhorn sheriff discern fact from fiction and stop the killer before another story is prematurely brought to a close.

OMG! NOW WHAT DO I DO?

The best series I've ever read. Can't wait for book 3. I love everything about this series. Only thing missing is a cat. Nora needs a kitty. Can't wait to read Witch of Blackbird Pond. Such great book recommendations !

Really Lovely bookish mystery

This is the second book taking place in Miracle Springs. Great characters, well developed & beautifully flawed. The mystery is clever enough that it can’t be guessed immediately and nicely developed. Recommend both books - the audible edition is well narrated

Good series

enjoyed the series, parts were predictiable still likable . actually enjoy all her books Light listening when driving

Pretty good

This is a pretty good follow up to the first book in the series. The characters and plot are well developed. I look forward to seeing what happens next in this series.

Great new series

We loved it! A series that tugs at your heart strings while engaging the mind.

I’m Enchanted

What a lovely cozy story. It warms my heart, and causes me to consider relying less on audiobooks and pick up some paper stories again. Books in our hands should never be lost. I love this series of sweet tales that take me to a softer world , away from the harshness of these times in 2022.
Perfect reader in Cris Dukehart.

Captured my interest and never let go!

This author made these characters so real to me, I felt part of the Society! Fantastic story! I’ve already found more in the series.

Another good installment

Another good installment of in the series. I hope that some of the hinted past shows up in the main characters storyline. I do wish that the narrators would loosen up in scenes. Her tone works for most of the novel but there was times when the character was being moved by emotion but the narrator still sounded stiff.

Heroism and tenacity.

Loved the characters and the storytelling of each woman’s story as their lives intertwine. A book of hope.

Delightful and Well written

I love this series and the uniqueness of the characters is enthralling. It was both entertaining and suspenseful. I want to live in Miracle Springs.
