Женщина в белом

This was written in 1859 and considered to be one of the first mystery novels of its time. The story unfolds through a series of documents/witness statements held by a variety of characters designed to elucidate a conspiracy plan against innocent women. This novel is very long and written in the Victorian era so stamina is required unless you are used to reading classic literature.

I really enjoyed this book and was surprised by the complex story line which included mystery, suspense and romance. I could identify with the characters and found links to the present day, which is surprising having been written decades ago. I found the different genres throughout the novel (documents, witness statements etc) added a unique feel to the novel which I really enjoyed.
