One of the earliest works of detective fiction with a narrative woven together from multiple characters, Wilkie Collins partly based his infamous novel on a real-life 18th century case of abduction and wrongful imprisonment. In 1859 the story caused a sensation with its readers, hooking their attention with the ghostly first scene where the mysterious Anne Catherick comes across Walter Hartright.
