Book description from Goodreads:
Raised by an old fortune-teller within the dark veil of the Bavarian Black Forest, Rune has learned two valuable lessons: only take from the forest that which you can use, and never, never look anyone in the eye in the village. For something terrible happened in the forest long ago... and now, the whispers of a long-dead mother with a vengeful secret have come haunting.
Forced to flee all she has ever known, Rune soon learns of a legacy she is bound to--one that is drenched in fear, witchcraft and murder--a birthright that stretches beyond the grave to the trees where Rune is no longer safe.
---------------------------------------------------------
I've read Forest of Whispers and I loved it. I'm excited for everyone else to be able to read it soon, too. It really is a perfect book to pick up for fall reading. It is a bewitching historical fantasy with magic, danger, mystery and lots of surprises.
