The Pagan’s Cup by Fergus Hume ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Pagan’s Cup by Fergus Hume audiobook. Genre: mystery In the sleepy English seaside village of Colester, where an ancient chapel and older families still govern daily life, newcomer Richard Pratt arrives with money, charm, and a disconcerting talent for winning his way into closed doors. To ingratiate himself with the locals, Pratt offers an extravagant gift to the church: a remarkable antique cup to serve as an altar chalice. But the village peace cannot survive the cup's arrival. Whispers spread about its origins and ownership, and when the prized object disappears, suspicion swiftly settles on Leo Haverleigh, the anxious adopted son of the formidable Mrs. Gabriel, whose iron will controls his future and threatens his budding romance with Sybil Tempest, the vicar's bright, idealistic daughter. As reputations fray and old grudges surface, a London detective is drawn into the case, and Pratt's polished facade begins to look less like generosity and more like design. Moving between village gossip, private bargains, and hidden histories, Fergus Hume builds a tense web of motive and misdirection around a single, dangerous treasure - and the lengths people will go to possess it, or to bury the truth about it.
