A sizeable inheritance threatens to come between a man and his wife. Perhaps a nice trip to explore strange and distant lands might help settle things? From the mordant pen of John Collier.

The Midnight Reading is a special series of dramatic readings of lost classics from the world of macabre fiction that have inspired our show, Fireside Mystery Theatre. We hope to encourage you, dear listeners, to embrace the joy of books and to build your own collection of dark literature.
