[893] In the House of Keys

Hi,

Here is my critique: https://old.reddit.com/r/DestructiveReaders/comments/1mdnsne/1770_the_book_in_seat_22a/n6q0rwf/

I have been writing for awhile but have never posted anything. Here is the first chapter of a novella I have been working on for some time called "In the House of Keys". The story is about Martin, a calligrapher and bookbinder, who's wife vanishes without trace. Yet his forensic examination of their life together leads him to believe that her disappearance is supernatural.

Some things which I have left deliberately confusing in this chapter should make more sense later. Just to note the ball referred to in the story is an academic ball of the type that take place at some British universities.

Please find the google doc here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vRcDEMuOIU9ltdQ6eTg8JocAwkMnAwZ_iE7rZnvug7z4lnWX1Q51Re_YL38rtEyCwWNcydoFb2JZwLK/pub

Any comments gratefully received.
