Markheim

A single choice can reveal the true nature of a soul.

In Markheim, Robert Louis Stevenson delivers a haunting psychological tale of guilt, temptation, morality, and redemption. Set on a dark Christmas Day, the story follows Markheim, a man whose desperate actions lead him into a chilling confrontation—not only with a mysterious stranger, but with his own conscience.

Part gothic horror, part moral fable, and part psychological thriller, Markheim explores the eternal struggle between greed and virtue, self-deception and truth. Stevenson's masterful storytelling creates a tense and atmospheric journey into the depths of the human mind, where every decision carries profound consequences.

Elegantly narrated by John Riddle, this timeless classic remains one of the most compelling explorations of conscience and redemption in Victorian literature.
