This work is a psychological fiction by Louisa May Alcott. It presents the story of Gladys, a fighter who impressively faces all the challenges life throws before her. Alcott delivers an excellently written plot with strong characterization throughout the story. This beautifully written story prompts all sorts of emotions in the reader. Excerpt from A Modern Mephistopheles, and A Whisper in the Dark "A haggard youth knelt before a little furnace, kindling a fire, with an expression of quiet desperation on his face, which made the simple operation strange and solemn. A pile of manuscript lay beside him, and in the hollow eyes that watched the white leaves burn was a tragic shadow, terrible to see,—for he was offering the first-born of heart and brain as sacrifice to a hard fate."

Back when Louisa May Alcott was an aspiring author she took to the art of writing short stories – much like her character Jo March in ́Little Women’. A thrilling and chilling story, 'A Whisper in the Dark' delves into the vulnerability of innocence as a young girl is sent to reside with her uncle and cousin, with the expectation that she will eventually marry the latter. The tale beautifully demonstrates the remarkable range and complexity of Alcott's work, and is often considered a gothic masterpiece. Fans of Stephen King, Gillian Flynn and Agatha Christie will find plenty to love in 'A Whisper in the Dark ́. Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was an American writer of numerous beloved novels, short stories and poems. One of her best-known works is "Little Women", a novel that has been turned into numerous film and television adaptations, such as the 2019 film, starring Saorise Ronan, Florence Pugh and Timothée Chalamet.
