[00:00] Intro & Title

[00:46] Chapter 1: The Invitation
Holmes receives a letter from Leer, a small town in Germany, describing an unnatural silence that has fallen over a specific house and its surroundings.

[03:43] Chapter 2: Arrival in Leer
Holmes and Watson travel to East Frisia. Upon arrival in Leer, they notice the town's sounds are strangely muted and restrained.

[08:02] Chapter 3: The House Without Sound
They visit the house in question. Inside, the silence is oppressive and complete; sounds do not reverberate or echo at all.

[12:05] Chapter 4: The People of the Town
Holmes interviews the locals. They are not fearful but seemingly resigned to the phenomenon, sleeping poorly due to "what is not there."

[15:48] Chapter 5: The Explanation
Holmes deduces that the silence is not supernatural but physical. He suspects the cause lies across the river in the village of Bingumgaste.

[19:54] Chapter 6: The Man Behind the Silence
They confront a man in Bingumgaste who has engineered his home to absorb all sound, inadvertently creating an "acoustic void" that affects the area.

[24:00] Chapter 7: A Resolution Without Triumph
The engineer agrees to alter his construction. Slowly, normal sounds begin to return to the town of Leer.

[28:52] Epilogue: The Sound of Living
Back in London, Watson reflects on the case and the importance of sound as proof of life and existence.


"The Quiet Town" is an original Sherlock Holmes short story and audiobook project, set not in London, but in the small German town of Leer, near the river Ems.

Instead of murder or crime, Holmes and Watson are confronted with something far more unsettling:
a silence that spreads through a street at night — complete, unnatural, and deeply disturbing.

Told from Dr. Watson’s perspective, this story focuses on atmosphere, psychology, and place.
On fog, water, distance — and on the fragile balance between silence and sound.

The setting draws heavily on East Frisian landscapes and mentality: restraint, calm, acceptance — and the quiet understanding that not everything needs to be explained aloud.

The Silent City is a reflective, slow-burn Holmes story for listeners who enjoy mood, depth, and subtle unease rather than action and spectacle.
