The Black Book: Forest of Whispers is the first installment in Jane Pane's dark fantasy saga, blending Slavic folklore, forbidden romance, and heart-stopping suspense.
Centuries ago, Nika's ancestor was burned at the stake, cursing both her descendants and the family of her accuser. Now, in 2024, Nika receives a mysterious letter that speaks of the Black Book-a tome of magic torn into four parts, hidden across the world, and guarded by creatures of myth. Unless it is restored, every daughter of her line is doomed.
Her search begins in the haunted forests of Lviv, where legends walk in the fog and whispers echo from the trees. There she meets Alex, a man whose bloodline is bound to her curse. Drawn together by danger and desire, they must face trials set by the Leshy, unearth a murder long buried, and decide whether love can survive when fate demands betrayal.
