The Grey Woman by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell audiobook.

Genre: thriller

Presented as a found manuscript passed from hand to hand, The Grey Woman draws you into a hushed confession of fear, courage, and reinvention. In a small German town, the gentle Anna Scherer is courted into an elegant marriage that promises security and sophistication. But behind the fine house, the polished manners, and the glitter of high society, Anna begins to sense a deeper menace in her husband and the circle that surrounds him. When scattered clues harden into certainty, Anna finds an unexpected ally in Amante, a sharp-eyed servant whose loyalty is matched only by her practical daring. Together they attempt what seems impossible: to break free from a powerful man who does not intend to be refused, and from a past that can track them across borders. As Anna is forced into secrecy and disguise, every knock at the door becomes a test of nerve, and every new refuge carries the question of who can be trusted. Elizabeth Gaskell blends Gothic atmosphere with psychological realism, exploring coercion, survival, and the price of reclaiming your own name.

The Thing from the Lake by Eleanor M. Ingram audiobook.

Genre: horror

To get away from city life periodically, New Yorker Roger Locke purchases an abandoned farm house in rural Connecticut, and with the assistance of his cousin Phillida and her beau Ethan Vere, he sets about fixing up the place.

Immediately however, an unseen mysterious woman begins giving him warnings during nocturnal visits to leave the house at once. Soon he begins hearing strange ominous sounds emanating from the tiny lake at the back of the house coupled with a permeation of sickly odors. An evil presence then begins to visit him during the witching hours of the late night, challenging him to a battle of wits from which there can be only one victor.

Is his mysterious female visitor there to help and encourage him to flee from the house, or is she working in tandem with The Thing From the Lake?

A gripping, occasionally frightening tale, Ms. Ingram wastes no time in grabbing the reader into the story and manages to weave a tale that will leave the reader guessing at every turn of events.

The Riddle of the Sands by Erskine Childers audiobook.

Genre: thriller

Containing many realistic details based on Childers' own sailing trips along the German North Sea coast, the book is the retelling of a yachting expedition in the early 20th century combined with an adventurous spy story.

It was one of the early invasion novels which predicted war with Germany and called for British preparedness. The plot involves the uncovering of secret German preparations for an invasion of the United Kingdom. It is often called the first modern spy novel, although others are as well, it was certainly very influential in the genre and for its time.

The book enjoyed immense popularity in the years before World War I and was extremely influential. Winston Churchill later credited it as a major reason that the Admiralty decided to establish naval bases at Invergordon, the Firth of Forth and Scapa Flow.
