Our final episode of 2023 investigates Celia Fremlin's "The Long Shadow" from 1975. Fremlin's text spins an intricate domestic mystery surrounding the recently-widowed character of Imogen Barnicott. Strange things start happening around her home at Christmastime and her late husband's family arrive to spend the holidays with their own baggage weighing heavy. But house guests are only the start of Imogen's trouble: nightmarish visitors, misplaced books, anonymous letters, a stolen cat... oh, and accusations of murder - what holiday would be complete without them! So, stoke the fire and grab your favourite grog, it's time for a holiday mystery!
