PAPERBACK

LORD BLESS US! IT WAS A DIAMOND! AS LARGE, OR NEARLY, AS A PLOVER'S EGG! THE LIGHT THAT STREAMED FROM IT WAS LIKE THE LIGHT OF THE HARVEST MOON.

CENTRED ON A GLORIOUS YELLOW DIAMOND THAT CARRIES WITH IT A MENACING HISTORY, THE MOONSTONE TELLS THE STORY OF RACHEL VERINDER, WHO INHERITS THE JEWEL ON HER 18th BIRTHDAY. THAT VERY EVENING, THE DIAMOND IS STOLEN AND THERE BEGINS AN EPIC INQUIRY INTO HUNTING DOWN THE THIEF. AT THE SAME TIME, THREE INDIAN MEN, BRAHMIN GUARDIANS OF THE DIAMOND ARE ATTEMPTING TO RECLAIM THE STONE IN ORDER TO RETURN IT TO THEIR SACRED HINDU IDOL. TOLD FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, WILKIE COLLIN'S TALE OF MYSTERY AND SUSPICION WAS CONSIDERED THE FIRST MODERN ENGLISH DETECTIVE NOVEL AT ITS TIME OF PUBLICATION.
