About this listen

Whatever had been going on inside the shuttered old house, the couple who lived there kept it to themselves. Among the locals, there's only chilling speculation.

Neighbors are shocked when Harold Pardee reports his wife dead. No one even knew the eccentric TV repairman was married. Within hours, horrible rumors spread about what that poor woman must have endured for 30 years. Until the Pardees' carefully guarded world is exposed. New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Haigh delivers an endearing short story about our misguided perception of strangers, the nature of love, and the need for secrets.

Jennifer Haigh's Zenith Man is part of Inheritance, a collection of five stories about secrets, unspoken desires, and dangerous revelations between loved ones. Each piece can be read or listened to in a single setting. By yourself, behind closed doors, or shared with someone you trust.

Gossip trumps secrets

In a small US town where Harold had lived for decades, people were quite shocked when he reported the death of his wife - no one even knew he was married, they’d certainly never seen her. Speculation runs riot as Harold is blamed for her death. This book is part of the stunning Inheritance Collection, five short books by different authors focusing on secrets. While I liked the gentle humour in this, I didn’t feel the story had the emotional sting or characterisation of the other three books I’ve read. However, great narrative performance by David Colacci!
