I took a college course devoted to 19th century Sensationalist novels--we read The Moonstone by Collins instead of this one (maybe because of the length). Dickens has some great ones and one of my favorites was Lady Audley's Secret.<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed this one, Corinne. Wasn't the Count something else? :)Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636261725049671888.post-79760176908676076572009-05-11T13:20:00.000-07:002009-05-11T13:20:00.000-07:00Sounds intriguing.

Collins does cliffhangers really well. (Okay, that's an understatement. He's awesome.)
