The Amethyst Box by Anna Katharine Green ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Amethyst Box by Anna Katharine Green audiobook.

Genre: mystery

On the evening before his wedding, well-to-do collector Sinclair shows off a strange and beautiful curiosity: an amethyst box concealing a minute vial of deadly poison. When the box vanishes soon after, the celebration curdles into panic. Sinclair turns to his closest friend and best man, Worthington, with a fear he can barely speak aloud: only two people had the chance to take it - Sinclair's bride-to-be, Gilbertine, or her cousin Dorothy, the very woman Worthington quietly loves. If the poison remains in the wrong hands, a life could be ended with a single drop; if Sinclair voices his suspicions, he risks ruining reputations and detonating a scandal on the threshold of marriage. Together the two men begin a tense, clandestine search through drawing rooms, corridors, and carefully guarded secrets, weighing every gesture and every half-heard remark for meaning. As the hours count down and trust frays, Green builds a classic mystery of motive and misdirection, where devotion, jealousy, and honor collide under the bright surface of society's rules.
