A mystery classic and renowned example of sensation fiction, The Woman in White is the fifth published novel by Wilkie Collins. Published in 1859, we are immediately intrigued by the narrative - a young and genial tutor of arts, Walter Hartright, encounters a woman dressed head to toe in white who is lost in the streets of London. After reporting her to the authorities Walter is informed that the lady was an escapee from a mental asylum.

However, when Walter takes a new position in teaching art he encounters a girl named Laura, whose looks are stunningly similar to those of the woman in white. As the pair fall for one another, the sense of mystery deepens - is there more to their meeting than first meets the eye?

Lauded for its innovative and compelling plot and use of multiple characters in narration, The Woman in White is one of the earliest examples of detective fiction.
