Spoken in Whispers is the autobiography of a remarkable woman. Nicci Mackay is a horse whisperer, one of only a few people in the world who can translate what horses say. Nicci, who has had the extraordinary gift of being able to communicate with animals since childhood, tells her story with honesty and humour. She writes about a life dedicated to animals - from her years spent as groom and jockey in a racing yard, when she operated in secret, to more recent times when, after her amazing ability was discovered by the media, she began travelling extensively, translating and interpreting on behalf of animals for their owners.
