"The Sins of the Fathers" by Christianna Brand
The ancient custom of "sin-eating" endures in a remote Welsh farming community. With a widow waiting to bury her husband and his father - the sin-eater - sick, it falls to young Ianto to perform the ritual. But has he the stomach for it?
This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted: The Classic Horror Podcast. "The Sins of the Fathers" by Christianna Brand (1964).
