About this audiobook

Sentenced to death by the Spanish Inquisition, a prisoner awakens in total darkness, unaware of the specific torture that awaits him. He navigates a cell designed to break the mind, facing a deep abyss and a razor-sharp blade descending with agonizing slowness. Poe masterfully exploits the fear of the unseen and the inevitable. This is a sensory masterpiece of psychological terror and the desperate will to survive.
