James, Henry, Nation: "To Mr. Collins belongs the credit of having introduced into fiction those most mysterious of mysteries, the mysteries which are at our own doors. This innovation gave a new impetus to the literature of horrors....Mr. Collin's productions deserve a more respectable name [than 'sensation novel']. They are massive and elaborate constructions--monuments of mosaic work, for the proper mastery of which it would seem, at first, than an index and notebook were required."

"The woman in white first appears at night on a lonely heath near London and is next seen at a grave-side in Cumberland. Who is she? Where has she come from, and what is her history? She seems alone and friendless, frightened and confused. And it seems she knows a secret - a secret that could bring ruin and shame to a man who will do anything to keep her silent. This famous mystery thriller has excitement, suspense, romance, and a plot that twists and turns on every page." --Back cover
