Darling Jim by Christian Mørk

4.0

A postman in a rural Irish village finds the dead body of an older lady in a house along his route. Then, the police discover other bodies: young women, her nieces, who have been poisoned and chained up inside the house. Then the book within a book begins, as the story of what led the aunt and nieces to die together in this house is revealed. Within that story is another story, of a man who is transformed into a wolf. Gothic and dark, not quite a mystery.
