"The Sphinx Without a Secret" 
An Etching by Oscar Wilde — Narrated by Stephen Byrne 
In this exquisitely crafted tale of mystery and melancholy, Oscar Wilde draws us into the shadowed streets of Victorian London where secrets linger behind silk veils and whispered rumours. When Lord Murchison encounters the hauntingly beautiful Lady Alroy—a woman as enigmatic as a sphinx—he becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind her curious behaviour and frequent visits to a private lodging house. 
But the deeper he digs, the more elusive the answer becomes. 
Is Lady Alroy hiding a lover, or simply hiding herself? And what happens when the truth, once unearthed, leaves only a hollow echo in its place? 
With Wilde’s trademark wit and tragic irony, The Sphinx Without a Secret is a meditation on love, illusion, and the terrible finality of truth.
