Тень в углу

by Mary Elizabeth Braddon, Мэри Элизабет Брэддон, Анастасия Четверикова (Translator)

События рассказа «Тень в углу» (1897) разворачиваются в старинном английском имении, где знатного повесу Энтони Бэскома, пустившего по ветру свое состояние, некогда настигла ужасная смерть. Комнату, в которой это случилось, много лет не открывали, но новый хозяин поместья, Майкл Бэском, не из тех, кто верит в предрассудки.
