• The Sea Mystery by Freeman Wills Crofts ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

  The Sea Mystery by Freeman Wills Crofts audiobook. Genre: mystery Fog rolls over the Devonshire coast as the tide slowly reveals a chilling discovery: a dismantled packing case containing a man’s body, with every clue deliberately obscured. No name. No obvious motive. No clear trail. From this single grim puzzle, the methodical and quietly relentless Inspector Joseph French of Scotland Yard begins one of his most intricate investigations. With almost nothing to go on, French must reconstruct a crime that seems to have been engineered to leave no trace—calculating train timetables, analyzing shipping routes, and patiently testing alibis against the unforgiving logic of time and place. Freeman Wills Crofts, a master of the classic “howdunit,” invites you into a world where reason, persistence, and tiny overlooked details are the keys to unlocking murder. As the clues carry French from remote coastal villages to industrial centers and shadowy docks, the narrative tightens like a noose, each new fact snapping into place with almost mathematical precision. This audiobook is a slow-burn intellectual pleasure: atmospheric, grounded in realistic police work, and deeply satisfying as every piece of the puzzle finally clicks into a perfectly constructed solution. Listeners who love Golden Age detective fiction, ingenious plotting, and fair-play mysteries will find “The Sea Mystery” an absorbing experience from the first shrouded clue to the last, devastating revelation.

• Last Post by Ford Madox Ford ~ Full Audiobook [drama]

  Last Post by Ford Madox Ford audiobook. Genre: drama Last Post, the quietly devastating final volume of Ford Madox Ford’s Parade’s End tetralogy, is an elegiac meditation on memory, loss and the slow unravelling of an era. Set in the uneasy aftermath of the First World War, the novel follows Christopher Tietjens — rigid, honorable, and emotionally reserved — as he navigates the wreckage of marriage, class and conscience while the world around him slips into a new, less certain order. Ford’s prose moves between wry clarity and haunting interior reverie, rendering ordinary scenes — a country house, a ruined estate, a brief encounter — as charged with the weight of history and private regret. Listeners will be drawn into the subtle, often painful dynamics between Christopher, the mercurial Sylvia and the idealistic Valentine, experiencing through voice and rhythm the novel’s moral complexities and its spare, music-like cadences. For anyone who loves character-driven literature, psychological nuance and the elegiac beauty of modernist writing, Last Post is an immersive, emotionally rich audiobook that lingers long after the final line. Chapters (Approximate) (00:00:00) Chapter 00 (00:07:14) Chapter 01 (00:40:34) Chapter 02 (01:16:21) Chapter 03 (01:46:30) Chapter 04 (02:32:27) Chapter 05 (03:19:58) Chapter 06 (03:47:24) Chapter 07 (04:22:57) Chapter 08 (05:01:00) Chapter 09 (05:37:53) Chapter 10 (06:25:07) Chapter 11 Learn more about your ad choices.

• The Diamond Lens with Other Stories by Fitz-James OBrien ~ Full Audiobook [scifi]

  The Diamond Lens with Other Stories by Fitz-James OBrien audiobook. Genre: scifi Step into the shadowed laboratories and gaslit parlors of Victorian imagination with The Diamond Lens with Other Stories, a beguiling collection by Fitz-James O’Brien where scientific curiosity and supernatural dread collide. At the heart of the collection, “The Diamond Lens” follows an obsessive microscopist who grinds a jewel into a lens capable of revealing an astonishing hidden world — a fragile, luminous life no human eye has seen before — and the strange, beautiful, and tragic consequences that follow when obsession turns discovery into desire. Surrounding this centerpiece are tales that shift from eerie ghost stories to early speculative and proto-science-fiction experiments, each written with O’Brien’s elegant prose, dry wit, and a keen sense of the uncanny. These stories are equal parts wonder and warning: vivid period detail and inventive premise make for haunting twists, moral ambiguity, and a persistent sense that curiosity can open doors better left unopened. Perfect for listeners who love richly atmospheric narration, moral complexity, and the creaking thrill of nineteenth-century speculative fiction, this audiobook promises jolts of horror, sparks of science, and the melancholy beauty of discoveries that change everything. Chapters (Approximate) (00:00:00) Chapter 00 (00:23:48) Chapter 01 (01:19:11) Chapter 02 (02:33:00) Chapter 03 (03:28:50) Chapter 04 (04:09:42) Chapter 05 (04:58:24) Chapter 06 (05:38:37) Chapter 07 (06:16:50) Chapter 08 (06:48:56) Chapter 09 (07:15:39) Chapter 10 (07:45:00) Chapter 11 (08:13:48) Chapter 12 (08:59:07) Chapter 13 Learn more about your ad choices.
