About this audiobook
Some relics are meant to be buried forever.
When antiquarian Clara Venn arrives at the isolated Morrowglass House to catalog a forgotten collection of religious artifacts, she expects dust, superstition, and aristocratic decay. Instead, she discovers a sealed reliquary that appears to breathe.
As strange whispers begin appearing in her own handwriting and the ancient house tightens around its secrets, Clara uncovers a horrifying lineage of stolen final breaths, false sainthood, and generations willing to sacrifice the dead for the illusion of survival. But the deeper she catalogs the archive, the more the house begins cataloging her.
Rich with candlelit dread, crumbling Gothic atmosphere, and psychological supernatural horror, The Breathing Reliquary is a haunting descent into memory, grief, and the terrible cost of preserving what should be allowed to die.
Isolde Ravenscar crafts haunting tales steeped in shadow, memory, and the quiet dread that lingers long after the final word. Drawing on a lifelong fascination with Gothic literature and the eerie beauty of forgotten places, her stories explore isolation, obsession, and the fragile line between the living and the lost. When not writing, she wanders mist-laced landscapes and crumbling architecture in search of inspiration for her next unsettling tale.View all by Isolde Ravenscar
