About this audiobook
Castle Valemire was built to keep secrets alive.
When disgraced nobleman Alistair Veyne is summoned back to his ancestral estate after eleven years of exile, he is given a single duty: guard the sealed west wing and never answer the voices behind the door. But Valemire is no ordinary Gothic ruin. Corridors shift overnight, portraits change their expressions, forgotten rooms return where walls should stand, and the house itself seems to remember every shame the Veyne family tried to bury.
As whispers from the sealed wing begin calling him by name, Alistair uncovers the horrifying truth hidden within the castle’s foundations — generations of erased heirs, silenced scandals, and a living architecture built to imprison memory itself. And somewhere beyond the locked passage waits his sister Lavinia, dead for years… or something that still remembers being her.
Some houses keep secrets.
Valemire fed on them.
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
