Anotace
The Woman in White (1859-60) is the first and greatest `Sensation
Novel'. Walter Hartright's mysterious midnight encounter with the
woman in white draws him into a vortex of crime, poison,
kidnapping, and international intrigue. The novel is dominated by
two of the finest creations in all Victorian fiction - Marion
Halcombe, dark, mannish, yet irresistibly fascinating, and Count
Fosco, the sinister and flamboyant `Napoleon of Crime'. A
masterwork of intricate construction, The Woman in White sets new
standards of suspense and excitement, and achieved sales which
topped even those of Dickens, Collins's friend and mentor.
