A review by bibliophilelinda
The Woman in White, by Wilkie Collins

5.0

A richly detailed and well-told piece of classic literature, set in Victorian England, describing the events which occur after poor Walter Hartright helps save the elusive and etheral "woman in white" from a band of man bent on kidnapping her. Through multiple points of view, the subsequent events related to the reader range from love found and lost and found again, betrayal, kidnapping, attempted murder, switched identities, exploratory investigations worthy of Sherlock Holmes, and a secret so dangerous as to ruin the lives of many people. Engaging, sad and at times quite funny....particularly the pernicous personality of Mr. Fairlie. A great read!
