Castle Gate: The Audiobook

Castle Gate isn’t just set in the past — it’s haunted by it.

Step back in time, and across the veil.

Castle Gate is a gorgeously researched, spiritually resonant historical novel rooted in genealogy and the lives lost in Utah’s 1924 Castle Gate Mine Disaster. Woven with ancestral voices and emotional truth, it brings to life what it meant to be an immigrant, a miner, a woman, or a child navigating the injustices of early 20th-century coal town America—where company scrip ruled, housing was tied to the job, and Prohibition-era secrets ran deep.

But this is more than a glimpse into the past.

It’s a story the dead have been waiting to tell—one of resilience, injustice, and the healing power of being witnessed across generations.

Weaving together meticulous research and her own ancestral lineage, award-winning author Lisa Bonnice channels a tale both personal and universal—blurring the line between history and mediumship. This is the kind of story that keeps you walking longer, driving slower, and listening deeper.

“… we don’t really die until someone says our name for the last time.”

✨ Narrated with wit and warmth by Scottish voice artist Eleanor Morton.
