From the mind of M. R. James, the acknowledged master who redefined the ghost story for the 20th century and founded the 'antiquarian ghost story' genre, comes a chilling tale where academic rivalry uncovers a terrifying spectral curse.

A young, unassuming librarian is tasked with locating a specific, obscure book known as the Tractate Middoth for a wealthy, peculiar client. The request draws him into a convoluted plot involving a bizarre will, an immense inheritance, and a relentless legal quest. Soon, the librarian realises the text is guarded not just by legal documents but by a grotesque, spirit figure whose elongated form and terrifying visage appear in the shadows of the library stacks. The pursuit of the ancient text becomes a frantic, chilling struggle for survival against a highly malevolent guardian.
