The Witch's Bell - Paperback

Some echoes fade. Others never die.

Alice Moreau never believed in curses. Not really. But when she arrives at Silent Abbey-a place carved into the cliffs, forgotten by time-she begins to question everything. The nuns call it a sanctuary, a refuge from the outside world. But Alice soon learns that walls built for protection can just as easily become a prison.

The bell in the abbey tower hasn't rung in decades, its silence an unspoken rule that no one dares to break. The sisters whisper of old stories, of a bell that once tolled for the dead, of names written in a book that sealed their fate. When the bell tolls again for the first time in years, Alice becomes tangled in the unraveling of something ancient-something the abbey has tried to forget.

At night, she hears whispers in the walls. Shadows stretch where they shouldn't. And then there are the bruises-dark finger-shaped marks appearing on her skin, the same as those found on the last girl who died in this place. The nuns call it devotion, but Alice knows better. Something is waiting beneath the stone floors, beneath the prayers and silence. It has been waiting for her.

As she uncovers the truth behind the abbey's past, Alice realizes she is not the first Moreau to stand within these walls. A name scratched into the crumbling ledgers-Isabella Moreau-haunts her more than the whispers. Because if names written in the book mean death, then Alice's fate was decided long before she arrived.

She must find a way to break the cycle before the bell tolls again. Because this time, it's tolling for her.

A chilling blend of gothic horror, supernatural suspense, and dark mystery, The Witch's Bell explores the weight of history, the echoes of the past, and what happens when the dead refuse to stay silent.
