The Sword of Damocles by Anna Katharine Green ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Sword of Damocles by Anna Katharine Green audiobook.

Genre: mystery

In gilded Gilded Age New York, Bertram Mandeville has talent, charm, and a rising reputation as a concert pianist - yet love makes him restless. Convinced that art alone cannot win the woman he adores, Bertram turns from the keyboard to the ruthless promises of Wall Street, placing his future in the hands of his powerful relative, Mr. Sylvester. Then a strange summons arrives, carried through the city by a shadowy messenger, and Bertram is drawn into a web that reaches far beyond romance: a young woman named Paula, shaken by recent tragedy and guarded by formidable aunts, moves like a quiet riddle through drawing rooms and village lanes, while whispers gather around a grand house, a lingering old woman, and questions no one dares ask aloud. As money, reputation, and affection become dangerously intertwined, doors that should stay closed begin to open - in banks, in homes, and in human hearts. With the threat of scandal and judgment hanging overhead like the fabled sword, Green builds a story of ambition and conscience, where justice and mercy may demand very different prices.
