The Key in the Courtyard Fountain

from Sleepbound Nights · host Sleepbound Nights · Ian & Alex

Soft limestone and still air. A Paris courtyard on a slow spring morning, a fountain newly filled after winter — and at the bottom of the basin, a small brass key that doesn't belong to anyone Marianne knows. So she puts on her shoes and starts asking around. Includes mentions of: Bodies of Water, Food, Beverages, Animals, History. About Sleepbound Premium Bedtime stories for grown-ups.
