The Woman in the Alcove by Anna Katharine Green ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]
The Woman in the Alcove by Anna Katharine Green audiobook. Genre: mysteryAt a glittering New York ball, plain, practical Rita Van Arsdale is stunned when Anson Durand, the man she has quietly admired, proposes marriage. Moments later the night turns sinister: the celebrated beauty Mrs. Fairbrother is discovered murdered in a curtained recess known as the alcove, and the spectacular diamond that drew every eye has vanished. Whispers race through the mansion, the guests become suspects, and the police close in - with Anson uncomfortably near the center of suspicion. Refusing to let her future be decided by rumor and circumstantial evidence, Rita begins to watch, listen, and reconstruct the evening's hidden movements for herself. Moving between drawing rooms and back corridors, she confronts coded conversations, social rivalries, and a household full of people with something to conceal, while working alongside official investigators whose methods do not always match her instincts. Anna Katharine Green blends courtroom-sharp logic with high-society tension in a mystery where love complicates testimony, appearances mislead, and one secluded alcove holds the key to a deadly truth.For ad-free listening try our premium subscription Chapters (Approximate)(00:00:00) Chapter 01(00:25:48) Chapter 02(00:52:14) Chapter 03(01:23:30) Chapter 04(01:42:50) Chapter 05(02:06:02) Chapter 06(02:20:28) Chapter 07(02:54:19) Chapter 08(03:00:25) Chapter 09(03:13:16) Chapter 10(03:25:37) Chapter 11(03:38:01) Chapter 12(03:56:58) Chapter 13(04:17:53) Chapter 14(04:40:17) Chapter 15(04:59:53) Chapter 16(05:11:47) Chapter 17(05:26:54) Chapter 18(05:37:32) Chapter 19(05:43:42) Chapter 20(05:55:19) Chapter 21(06:11:16) Chapter 22(06:21:07) Chapter 23(06:51:34) Chapter 24 Learn more about your ad choices.

The Thief by Anna Katharine Green ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]
The Thief by Anna Katharine Green audiobook. Genre: mysteryIn Anna Katharine Green's classic short mystery The Thief, an elegant dinner party is interrupted by a small disaster with big consequences: a valuable coin, passed from hand to hand for everyone to admire, suddenly vanishes. With polite society teetering on the edge of scandal, the host tries to restore order by proposing a simple, seemingly fair test - each gentleman will empty his pockets to prove his innocence. The plan works at once for most of the company...until one guest flatly refuses the search and abruptly leaves the house. His defiance turns a parlor-room puzzle into a question of character, motive, and appearances: is the bold objector the obvious culprit, or is he protecting something else that would be just as damaging if revealed? As suspicion spreads, Green uses tight, conversational narration and keen social observation to explore how quickly reputations can be dismantled, and how easily circumstantial evidence can mislead. The result is a compact, sharply constructed whodunit in which every gesture and hesitation matters, and the truth hides in the details everyone thinks they can safely ignore.For ad-free listening try our premium subscription Chapters (Approximate)(00:00:00) Chapter 01(00:25:35) Chapter 02 Learn more about your ad choices.

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.For ad-free listening try our premium subscription Chapters (Approximate)(00:00:00) Chapter 01(00:04:27) Chapter 02(00:17:40) Chapter 03(00:40:24) Chapter 04(01:04:46) Chapter 05(01:31:56) Chapter 06(01:36:34) Chapter 07(01:53:16) Chapter 08(02:10:02) Chapter 09(02:39:28) Chapter 10(02:55:58) Chapter 11(03:19:18) Chapter 12(03:43:39) Chapter 13(04:12:14) Chapter 14(04:47:00) Chapter 15(05:06:46) Chapter 16(05:35:38) Chapter 17(06:02:19) Chapter 18(06:10:19) Chapter 19(06:25:19) Chapter 20(06:45:32) Chapter 21(07:06:55) Chapter 22(07:30:49) Chapter 23(07:54:07) Chapter 24(08:18:36) Chapter 25(08:44:29) Chapter 26(09:15:59) Chapter 27(09:30:17) Chapter 28(09:59:09) Chapter 29(10:03:48) Chapter 30(10:23:33) Chapter 31(10:36:31) Chapter 32(11:07:34) Chapter 33(11:31:29) Chapter 34(11:55:52) Chapter 35(12:31:46) Chapter 36(12:43:25) Chapter 37(13:24:30) Chapter 38(13:34:25) Chapter 39(14:38:13) Chapter 40(14:42:09) Chapter 41(15:20:10) Chapter 42(15:33:24) Chapter 43(15:41:03) Chapter 44(16:02:47) Chapter 45(16:20:38) Chapter 46 Learn more about your ad choices.
