  Title: August Heat 
  Author: W. F. Harvey 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1910 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Number 35 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  August Heat by W. F. Harvey is a study in fate and foreboding — a story where coincidence feels like prophecy and the ordinary turns quietly terrifying. On a blistering summer afternoon, an artist sketches the image of a man destined for death. By chance, or by something darker, he meets that very man soon after — and together they face a future that may already be set in stone. 
  Harvey’s understated masterpiece captures the dread of inevitability without a single ghost or monster. Its horror lies in what cannot be changed — the creeping sense that destiny is real, and that some meetings are written long before they occur. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance evokes the suffocating heat, the weight of coincidence, and the chill of realization that closes around both men. While the text itself is in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  Part of Timeless Terrors, a series devoted to resurrecting the masters of the macabre, August Heat stands as a haunting reminder that true terror needs no apparition — only time, silence, and the certainty of what must come.

  Esme - From their pens to your...

  Saki Saki

  Hector Hugh Munro, more familiarly known by his pen-name ‘Saki’ was born in what was then Akyab in British Burma on 18th December 1870. His father was an Inspector General for the Indian Imperial Police, and his mother the daughter of a Rear Admiral. 
  When he was 2 his mother died and he and his siblings were sent back to England to be raised by their grandmother and paternal maiden aunts in a strict, puritanical household near Barnstaple, Devon. Educated by governesses Saki used many of these women as character models for his later writing. 
  At 17 his father retried and returned to England and then embarked on a series of European travels with Saki and his siblings. 
  After a short stint working in Burma with the Indian Imperial Police Saki decided to move to London to make a living as a writer. Initially he wrote as a journalist for a number of newspapers and magazines before attempting an historical study, ‘The Rise of the Russian Empire’, whose real value lay in directing him to writing short stories instead, the first of which, ‘Dogged’, he published in 1899. 
  From here it was a short stab of the pen to writing political satire before in 1902 he became the foreign correspondent for The Morning Post, first in the Balkans, then Russia, Paris and back to London in 1908, where 'the agreeable life of a man of letters with a brilliant reputation awaited him.'  
  Collections of his short stories full of witty, mischievous and often macabre stories that satirized Edwardian society and two novels now appeared in the years up to the Great War.  At its’ outbreak he was 43 but managed to join as an ordinary trooper. More than once he returned to the battlefield when officially too sick or injured.  
  On 14th November 1916 Hector Hugh Munro was sheltering in crater during the Battle of the Ancre, when he was shot and killed by a German sniper. According to several sources, his last words were "Put that bloody cigarette out!"
