Victorian murder and mystery



I always love reading the quotes at the beginning of books (well when the books have them). And I’m taking it as a really good sign that this book (The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher: A Shocking Murder and the Undoing of a Great Victorian Detective by Kate Summerscale) opens with a quote from The Moonstone. Gosh I love that book.
