📌 Patreon — ad-free, early access, bonus content (tiers from $2.99/month)https://www.patreon.com/NocturnalTalesA stout woman in a plain black dress writes to the Belgian Detective: she has seen a murder before it is committed — the man will die before midnight on Friday, the place is called Greycombe House, and there will be a clock stopped at eleven; at the heavy stone mansion in St John's Wood they find a rich, gouty old man purple with fury that the clairvoyant has dared to return, a pale young wife with restless hands, a nervous nephew and heir, a dark-haired ward whose beauty is spoiled by strain, and a composed doctor who says too little; last week at a séance in this house Madame Celestine Lorrimer went into a trance and said "the clock waits, eleven waits, the hand is on the throat" — then the lights went out and someone screamed; now the clock in the hall has stopped, the master lies dead beneath it, and the hands have been set to eleven, but the clock was meant to strike eleven, and those are not the same thing at all; inspired by the extraordinary case of Helen Duncan, the Scottish medium tried under the Witchcraft Act of 1735 at the Old Bailey (1944), while remaining entirely fictional, The Clairvoyant's Hour is an original Golden Age–style mystery about prophecy, fraud, and the discovery that the most dangerous person in the room is not the woman who sees the future but the man who heard her too well and used the vision as a stage direction for murder.ℹ️ FOR LISTENERSThis is an original Golden Age–style mystery presented as a respectful homage to classic detective fiction, inspired by the case of Helen Duncan, the Scottish medium tried under the Witchcraft Act of 1735 (1944). All characters and events in this story are fictional. No affiliation, endorsement, or official connection is implied.💬 QUESTION FOR THE COMMENTSThe clairvoyant said the clock would stop at eleven. The murderer set the hands to eleven. But she had said the clock would strike eleven — and those are not the same thing. When a vision is turned into a stage direction, who bears the greater guilt — the woman who saw, or the man who listened? 🕵️─────────────────────────────📖 GET THE EBOOK — $3.99📌 Patreon — included with Writing Table & Archive Society, or one-time purchasehttps://www.patreon.com/posts/156573383🛒 Gumroad — EPUB + PDF includedhttps://nocturnaltalespod.gumroad.com/l/ebookvol2❤️ Buy Me a Coffee — EPUB + PDF includedhttps://buymeacoffee.com/nocturnaltales/e/532495Both formats included — EPUB for Kindle, Kobo, Apple Books · PDF for tablets.─────────────────────────────❤️ SUPPORT & LISTENING OPTIONS📌 Patreon — ad-free, early access, bonus content (tiers from $2.99/month)https://www.patreon.com/NocturnalTales❤️ Buy Me a Coffee — one-time supporthttps://buymeacoffee.com/nocturnaltales💛 PayPal — one-time tiphttps://paypal.me/nocturnaltalesprod🎧 Spotify — follow the showhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0OQ7OEseXIMbMt2NTI7oHy?si=FY8mgTx1SDqBdR7CJgymGw🎧 Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nocturnal-tales-mystery-audiobooks-and-crime-stories/id1896195848📚 Children's Book — Sherlock Paws and the Diamond of the Nilehttps://amzn.to/3MRzLNq─────────────────────────────🧾 CREDITSWritten by Nocturnal Tales.
