About this listen

In the shadow of World War II, in the heart of Yorkshire, Edward Smith, a diligent librarian, embarks on a unique cataloguing assignment at the secluded Hackthwaite Hall. The estate's owner, Dr. Lovegrove, a retired industrial chemist, reveals an unexpected obsession with the arcane art of alchemy, claiming to have conjured a supernatural creature of impossible powers.

Smith's initial amusement and skepticism dissolve as eerie phenomena begin to haunt the hall's ancient walls, and he finds himself drawn into the alchemist's wild tales. In this nexus where science and the occult intertwine, Edward must unravel the enigmatic secrets of 'The Poisoned Rose' before he becomes the next victim of its poisonous thorns.

'The Poisoned Rose' is a riveting supernatural mystery, set in the mid-1940s, brimming with unexpected twists and turns. Delve into the world of alchemy and the unexplained in this captivating novella that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

A lovely ,yet dark little story read by a wonderful reader, the author, Tony Walker. I must admit, I was yelling at the main character throughout, saying, “Don’t believe them, Don’t go in there!” But he was a very sheltered young man and not worldly-wise at all. Still, you’d think that all his reading would have taught him a thing or two about trust. Whatever, this was a very interesting read.

I couldn’t stop listening. Love the ending and how the story does not end. Maybe a second episode.

I love Tony and the way he tells the story. He always surprises me.

Enjoyed this gothic tale and narration immensely. Reminded me of the novels I grew up reading by Victoria Holt (Eleanor Hibbert) and Daphne du Maurier. Author knows how to build tension and helps one see the environment. Loved his accents and character differentiation. Worth the credit.

Gothic like Victoria Holt
