The Messengers of Death
Emile Pencenat is in a cemetery, designing his own ornate tomb. In a disused postbox by the gate he discovers an envelope addressed to a Mlle Veronique Champourcieux. He is puzzled but dutifully posts the letter. This is a story of dark vengeance and avarice, linking the peasant community of Upper Provence to nineteenth-century South Africa.
