The Moonstone (Part I)

Often lauded as 'the first, the longest, and the best of modern English detective novels,' Wilkie Collins's 'The Moonstone' is a brilliant epistolary thriller. The plot revolves around a magnificent large yellow diamond inherited by Rachel Verinder on her eighteenth birthday, only to be stolen from her room that very night. Told through a series of narratives from different characters, the book uncovers secrets, drug addictions, and romantic rivalries. Narrated with exceptional atmosphere and precision by Fuhrmann Ellen.
