About this audiobook
In a rough-hewn California town, rumor hardens into a verdict. When a rancher’s daughter is found murdered, outsider Walter Stedman is seized, condemned by saloon talk and spite, and hanged beneath a stark white oak. Only the tree has seen what really happened—and it does not forget. As wind and rain lash the hills, nature itself seems to waken with memory, anger, and a terrible, implacable justice. Eleanor F. Lewis distills mob mentality, guilt, and the eerie will of the natural world into a lean, haunting classic that lingers like the hush after thunder. Cory Stoutner’s atmospheric performance brings every shiver to life—the hoot of owls, the hiss of rain, the breathless dread of men who think they’re beyond consequence—culminating in a reckoning you won’t soon shake. Ideal for fans of M. R. James, Ambrose Bierce, and Algernon Blackwood, this single-sitting listen delivers a timeless chill in the great ghost story tradition.
