Summary:
The thirteenth tale is a haunting psychological mystery adapted by Oscar winning screenwriter Christopher Hampton from Diane Setterfield's bestselling novel. Biographer Margaret Lea (Olivia Colman-Broadchurch) is summoned to the Yorkshire home of reclusive, dying novelist Vida Winter (Vanessa Redgrave-Atonement) who has handpicked Margaret to write her biography. Though initially hesitant, as Vida has a reputationfordistorting facts in interviews, Margaret becomes fascinated by her previously untold story. As the novelist recounts her dark and disturbing childhood, Margaret is compelled to finally face the trauma of her own past. But as time runs out, Margaret, desperate to hear the end of Vilda's story, begins to wonder if she is hearing the confessions of a murderer.
