"The Moonstone is a page-turner," writes Carolyn Heilbrun. "It catches one up
and unfolds its amazing story through the recountings of its several narrators,
all of them enticing and singular." Wilkie Collins's spellbinding tale of
romance, theft, and murder inspired a hugely popular genre-the detective
mystery. Hinging on the theft of an enormous diamond originally stolen from an
Indian shrine, this riveting novel features the innovative Sergeant Cuff, the
hilarious house steward Gabriel Betteridge, a lovesick housemaid, and a
mysterious band of Indian jugglers.
This Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the definitive 1871 edition.
