Whispers in the Cypress: Down in the Bayou, the Dead Don't Sleep Quietly

By Gabrielle Taylor

Deep in the Louisiana bayou, the cypress trees whisper secrets the living were never meant to hear.

When Zion Baptiste returns to Bayou Larmes after years away, he thinks he's just burying the past. But the land remembers. The spirits are restless. And the bloodline he tried to escape is pulling him back-one haunting at a time.

Celeste Baptiste, Zion's mother, carried a curse no woman should bear. With every mirror covered and every prayer whispered in the dark, she fought to protect her son from the ancient evil lurking in their family's name. But when secrets rise from the swamp and voices call from the water, Zion must uncover the truth before the curse claims a new heir.

Steeped in Southern folklore, generational trauma, and Black spiritual tradition, Whispers in the Cypress is a chilling tale of legacy, redemption, and the spirits that never truly rest.
