Soon after, Hartright must employ various sleuthing techniques to solve an unparalleled mystery.

The Woman in White is Wilkie Collins's fifth published novel, written in 1859. The theme of the story is focused on the unequal position of married women in law at the time. It is considered to be among the first mystery novels and is widely regarded as one of the first (and finest) in the genre of "sensation novels." In 2003, The Observer listed The Woman in White number 23 in "the top 100 greatest novels of all time."

This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
