Hello, Geoffrey here, and welcome back to Nightfalls. First, I wanted to let you know that our first two Nightfalls audiobooks, Discovering Nightfalls and The Magic of Nightfalls, are now available across Spotify and Audible. Each book brings together almost eight hours of uninterrupted stories from the falls, designed to help you relax, unwind and drift off at your own pace. You can find them wherever you get your audiobooks. And if you do listen, we'd be so grateful for a review. It really helps us and helps more listeners find Nightfalls. Now get comfy and settled for one of my favorite genres, a calming detective story set in one of my favorite locations, the humbling peaks of the mountains.

It's another mystery featuring the inimitable turn-of-the-century detective, Miss Letitia Keene. Where do we find Miss Keen tonight? She's high in the Swiss Alps, ready for a relaxing holiday. But, as ever, mystery has followed Miss Keen. Before we begin, here's the quick ad break that keeps this free content possible. To go ad-free, subscribe via the link in the show notes. You know, there are a lot of different places here in Night Falls, but during the day, I still find myself wanting to learn a little more about the world. That's what led me to Everything Everywhere Daily. It's one of the most popular daily education podcasts. Even recently ranked the number one history podcast. And each episode is about 10 minutes, so it's easy to fit into your day.

They cover everything from history and science to fascinating people and moments you might never have come across otherwise. Some recent episodes I really liked include one on the history of curling, which, as a Scot, I have a soft spot for. Tracing it back to medieval Scotland. Or their episode on the world's greatest art museums, which I found myself really drawn to. I've always loved art, and hearing the stories behind these places makes it feel surprisingly immersive. So if you like the idea of learning something new without it ever feeling like work, Learn something new every single day with Everything Everywhere daily. Find it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you've ever wanted to lose yourself in a land of wizards, goblins, and creatures that really shouldn't be able to talk, somewhere between the tales we tell here and somewhere entirely new, Hello from the Magic Tavern is waiting for you.

It's an improvised comedy podcast set in the fantastical land of Foon, hosted by Arnie Niekamp, alongside his co-hosts, Udisor the Wizard and Chunt the Talking Badger. Each episode, they interview the creatures, spellcasters, and adventurers that wander through from throughout the land. A mix of storytelling, improv comedy, and pure absurdity. Find Hello from the Magic Tavern wherever you listen to your podcasts. Alright, now back to Nightfalls. Ahead of us joining her in the crisp mountain air, let's take a moment to relax. Release the concerns of the day. Prepare your mind and your body for rest. Find a comfortable position. Breathe in slowly, filling your lungs with air. Breathe out, letting any tension flow away from your shoulders, your neck, your jaw.

With each breath, feel yourself growing heavier, sinking deeper into comfort. Let the rhythm of your breathing become steady and slow. Now, we can begin. The high Swiss Alps in the springtime of 1921, in a valley nestled between the blue, snow-dusted peaks. There is a curl of steam rising. A steam train is winding its way through the mountains. And from out of her carriage window, Miss Letitia Keene is determined to take in every detail of the spectacular landscape unfolding on the other side of the pane. She observes the snow still settled on the highest parts of the mountains and, lower down, the wildflowers that have burst into bloom on the grassy slopes. She notes gentian edelweiss and alpine roses in shades of pink and white.

She peers down with a thrill whenever the train crosses one of the alpine wooden bridges that span deep gorges where rushing waters brim with bright blue snowmelt.
