Algernon Blackwood 2 hr 50 min read

A silk merchant's whim to revisit his old German school, and Dr. John Silence tramping the same mountains, converge on one of the psychic doctor's most curious cases, 'Secret Worship.'

Algernon Blackwood's 1908 stories continue his classic occult-detective series. Eerie, atmospheric, superbly told. Read it for three more superb John Silence cases, 'Secret Worship,' 'The Camp of the Dog,' and 'A Victim of Higher Space', masterworks of subtle supernatural dread from a great writer of the weird, and the model for every psychic detective since.
