The Room in the Dragon Volant by J. Sheridan LeFanu ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Room in the Dragon Volant by J. Sheridan LeFanu audiobook. Genre: mystery In Napoleonic-era Paris, young English traveler Richard Beckett arrives full of money, confidence, and the thrill of being anonymous in a glittering foreign city. An evening visit to a church delivers an instant obsession: a veiled, aristocratic beauty, the Comtesse de St Alyre, whose sadness and mystery seem to beckon him closer. A chance introduction pulls Richard into her orbit, where whispers of family danger, secret meetings, and urgent pleas for discretion make him feel both chosen and indispensable. But Paris has its own predators, and Richard's romantic certainty begins to collide with unsettling details: watchful strangers, oddly timed invitations, and a growing sense that every step has been anticipated. When he is steered toward a secluded inn called the Dragon Volant and assigned a particular room, the story tightens into a claustrophobic spiral of suspicion and dread. Blending gothic atmosphere with a sharp-eyed look at greed and manipulation, LeFanu spins a tense tale about the perils of desire, the ease of self-deception, and how quickly a traveler can become a target.
