Arabic / English
A mystery and thriller novel by Wilkie Collins, considered one of the first Gothic detective novels. The story begins with a mysterious encounter between the hero Walter Hartright and a strange woman in a white dress, which leads him into a complex web of secrets and deception.

An early example of mystery fiction, the protagonist, Walter Hartright, uses many of the spy techniques that would later become the standard for detective fiction. Collins’s narrative is told through multiple narrators, drawing on his legal training, and, as he himself notes in the preamble: “The story here presented will be told by more than one pen, as a crime against the law is told in court by more than one witness.”
