In love with the beautiful heiress Laura Fairlie, the impoverished art teacher Walter Henright finds his romantic designs thwarted by the scheming of the wicked Sir Percival Glyde and his sinister ally Count Fosco. The mystery and intrigue are deepened by the ghostly appearances of a woman in white, harbouring a secret that concerns Sir Percival's past. A tale of love, madness and identity, boasting sublime Gothic settings and pulse-quickening suspense, The Woman in White was the first best-selling Victorian sensation novel, sparking off a huge trend in the fiction of the time with its compulsive, fascinating narrative.
