A young woman starts experiencing terrifying premonitions of people dying, as it becomes clear that a family curse known only as The Murmurs has begun, and a long-forgotten crime is about to be unearthed...

'His biggest smash hit yet, an assured paranormal thriller in which the paranormal isn't even the scariest part ... A tale that leaves our interest piqued throughout, with the tension and foreboding reaching fever pitch' Herald Scotland

`A tense, creepy page-turner' Ian Rankin

`A master storyteller at the very top of his game, Michael J. Malone weaves the most exquisite tale ... mesmeric and suspenseful ́ Marion Todd

________________

In the beginning there was fear.
White-hot, nerve-shredding fear.
Terrifying premonitions of deaths.
And then they started...
The Murmurs...

On the first morning of her new job at Heartfield House, a care home for the elderly, Annie Jackson wakens from a terrifying dream. And when she arrives at the home, she knows that the first old man she meets is going to die.

How she knows this is a terrifying mystery, but it is the start of horrifying premonitions ... a rekindling of the curse that has trickled through generations of women in her family – a wicked gift known only as 'the murmurs'...

With its reappearance comes an old, forgotten fear that is about to grip Annie Jackson.

And this time, it will never let go...

A compulsive gothic thriller and a spellbinding supernatural mystery about secrets and small communities, about faith, courage and self-preservation, The Murmurs is a startling and compulsive read from one of Scotland's finest authors...
