Publisher Description

A love story spanning decades. A lonely widow mourning her husband and daughter. A trail of missing people all leading to one unpredictable source. Edna Mann, a lonely widow longing for the family she's lost, finds companionship in an unlikely source when her late husband begins communicating with her through her houseplant. As those around her begin to disappear, Edna must confront the reality that something much worse may be at play... and has been for longer than she could have ever expected. An atmospheric and haunting tale of love, heartache, fear, and obsession. The warped reality of an elderly woman filled with regret interlaces with the story of the past she desperately longs to relive. Whispers of Apple Blossoms is as romantic as it is heartbreakingly sinister and, as each petal falls, pulls you further into the darkness and toward the unforgettable finale.

"A twisty and complex horror novel with a love story at its center." - Kirkus Reviews

“A horror story and a love story that speak in the language of flowers spanning decades - Edna and Henry have been together all their lives. From their childhood running through the apple orchard… to the end, when cancer has taken Henrys life. Henry is not gone, however, Edna believes he is communicating with her through a beloved house plant. Unfortunately, things may be a little more sinister than that. This was a such a poetic, light horror story. It has mystery elements, and constantly changing POVS and timelines. There is no confusion as to the flow of the story though. It flows very well and the flashbacks serve to help solve the mystery. Not to mention, we have tons of flowers and plants appearing throughout the book that are also telling us a story. I LOVED how each chapter coincides with a different nature element and the meaning/origin was integrated into the storyline. That must have taken a lot of work on Brett’s part. It was very appreciated by me though! I highly recommend this story for anyone who enjoys nature horror like ‘Together We Rot’ or ‘House of Hollow’. Also for anyone who wants a light horror without too many scares.”
“I was surprised to find out this is the author’s debut novel. It is incredibly well written. He does a phenomenal job of telling and beautiful love story and making it work with the tragic events happening in the present time of the book. I cant wait to read more from this author!”
