About this book
Drawing master Walter Hartright encounters a mysterious woman dressed entirely in white on a lonely road. When he takes a position teaching two half-sisters at a country house, that unsettling meeting begins to connect with the affairs of his new employers. Told through several witnesses, the novel follows a conspiracy involving marriage, money, identity and the power of respectable men. Its Victorian setting is grounded rather than supernatural, but secrets and looming threats give it a distinctly Gothic atmosphere. A substantial classic built around investigation, deception and the struggle to establish the truth.
