📌 Patreon - ad-free, early access, bonus content (tiers from $2.99/month)https://www.patreon.com/NocturnalTalesLondon, a raw February morning: the Belgian Detective receives an anonymous letter on thick, foreign, violet-scented paper warning that if he values life, honour, and the prevention of scandal he must come that night to the house of an exiled Russian princess, where a duel is being arranged and a poet will die unless the truth is found first; inside a drawing room of icons, lacquer boxes, and silver samovars he and his loyal companion meet a celebrated émigré poet, his dazzling wife Natalya - beautiful with that alarming completeness that makes a room rearrange itself around her - and the dangerous young admirer whose attentions have set society talking, while anonymous letters mock a husband as a cuckold, pride festers, pistols are whispered of, and the old aristocratic code of honour sharpens quietly toward blood; The Russian Scandal is an original Golden Age-style mystery about jealousy, gossip, and the lethal theatre of honour, and the discovery that the most dangerous weapon in a room full of exiles is not a pistol but a rumour.ℹ️ FOR LISTENERSThis is an original Golden Age-style mystery presented as a respectful homage to classic detective fiction, inspired by the famous 1837 duel of the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin while remaining entirely fictional. All characters and events in this story are fictional. No affiliation, endorsement, or official connection is implied.💬 QUESTION FOR THE COMMENTSAn anonymous letter, a wounded pride, and a society that prized appearance over truth. These men believed honour could be restored with a bullet. When does defending your honour stop being courage and start being the thing that destroys you? 🕵️📖 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🎧 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.
