About this listen

On the storm-swept coast of Scotland, where the sea claws at the land and the wind carries whispers of danger, a man seeks refuge in a lonely pavilion—and finds himself entangled in a web of love, betrayal, and survival.

Robert Louis Stevenson’s A Pavilion on the Links is a masterwork of gothic adventure and romantic suspense—often hailed as one of the earliest modern thrillers. First published in 1880, this gripping tale follows a solitary wanderer who discovers two mysterious occupants hiding from assassins in a desolate seaside house. As the storm rages outside, secrets unfold within, revealing a past that refuses to stay buried.

With its haunting atmosphere and emotional intensity, A Pavilion on the Links stands as one of Stevenson’s finest short works—a precursor to Treasure Island and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde—where human passion and peril meet under the shadow of the Scottish sky.

Narrated by John Riddle, this immersive performance brings every gust of wind, every secret glance, and every moment of dread to vivid life.
