The Girls' Holiday Book
The Girls' Holiday Book by Ellen Bailey; Jen Wainwright is available at Global Books.
Wilkie Collins is a vivid biographical sketch of the "Grandfather of the Detective Novel" and the pioneer of the sensation novel in the mid-19th century. Ackroyd explores Collinsâs unconventional personal lifeâincluding his rejection of marriage and his dual householdsâalongside his intense and often collaborative friendship with Charles Dickens.
The biography highlights how Collinsâs fascination with the legal system, identity, and the darker secrets of the Victorian middle class led to his masterpieces, The Woman in White and The Moonstone. Ackroyd captures the spirit of a man who lived life on his own terms while creating the blueprint for the modern thriller, blending social commentary with a relentless sense of suspense and mystery.
