This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Stanley Fleming is a healthy, hard-nerved man with no patience for fancies — yet he sits before his physician unable to explain the dread that grips him each night. For when sleep takes him, a great white dog pads silently into his room and watches him with terrible patience, and Fleming wakes certain that the beast is no dream at all. The doctor probes for the root of his patient's terror, circling toward a single buried name and the guilty memory it conceals. But some debts are collected whether a man believes in them or not, and the truth of what haunts Stanley Fleming will be settled before the night is through.
