The Mysterious Mansion by Honoré de Balzac

A BBC Radio adaptation by Peter Mackie of Balzac's chilling story.

La Grande Breteche, an abandoned chateau, and its garden lie almost in total ruin somewhere in the Loire Valley ... and no one will ever speak about why it's been abandoned or the terrible secret hidden within its decaying walls.

One man, a famous writer in search of a new story, is determined to uncover its history ...
