The Moonstone

by Wilkie Collins

One World Classics -- Bloomsbury UK | July 12, 2011 | Trade Paperback

Described by T.S. Eliot as "the first, the longest and the best of modern English detective novels," Wilkie Collins''s classic The Moonstone is also an important precursor of the modern mystery and suspense genres. When Rachel Verinder''s legacy of a priceless Indian diamond is stolen, all the evidence indicates that it is her beloved, Franklin Blake, who is guilty. Around this central axis of a crime and a thwarted love, Collins constructs an ingenious plot of teasing twists and surprises, and an elaborate multi-voiced narrative that never flags in human interest. A huge hit when first published and ever since, The Moonstone keeps the reader guessing until the end, and together with The Woman in White places Collins among the greatest storytellers in the English language.

Really great

You must not have an objection to reading a long book
without pictures and a book from the time period of the British mid Nineteenth century. You will find this story just absolutely spellbinding. If you can resist peeking at the last pages you'll find the ending most surprising. The story moves very well. Considering that investigators of that time period had no modern advantages, except for writing letters and making personal visits, it is remarkable how this mystery is solved. A perfect book for curling up with on cold, rainy weekends.
