When a mysterious, seemingly vacant house across the street begins to draw her attention, a woman becomes convinced that something — or someone — is living inside. But why does the house stand empty, and what secret lies hidden within its walls? As her curiosity deepens, a web of mystery, compassion, and unexpected connection begins to unfold.

A House to Let is a rare literary collaboration between four of the greatest voices of the Victorian era — Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Adelaide Anne Procter. First published as a Christmas story, this richly woven tale combines Dickens’ humor and humanity, Collins’ flair for suspense, Gaskell’s warmth and insight, and Procter’s poetic sensibility.

Set against the backdrop of mid-19th-century London, the story moves seamlessly from moments of eerie tension to scenes of deep emotional resonance. What begins as a simple curiosity about a boarded-up house becomes a reflection on loneliness, generosity, and the human need for belonging.

With its blend of mystery, social conscience, and heart, A House to Let is both a haunting narrative and a testament to the enduring power of storytelling. Perfect for fans of Dickensian drama and Victorian suspense, this audiobook invites listeners to step into a fog-shrouded world where every locked door holds a secret — and every story leads to compassion.
