«The Woman in White» is the mystery novel by Wilkie Collins adapted by Richard G. Lewis in paperback (120 pages, in English, Oxford University Press).
A woman dressed in white appears at night on a moor near London and then beside a grave in Cumberland. No one knows who she is or where she comes from; she seems alone, frightened and confused, and perhaps knows a secret that a man will do anything to silence. It combines mystery, suspense and romance with a plot full of twists.
Adaptation by Richard G. Lewis for the Oxford Bookworms Library, level 6, with 2,500 vocabulary words.
Graded reader for students of English as a foreign language, suitable for an advanced level.
William Wilkie Collins was an English novelist and playwright known especially for The Woman in White (1860), a mystery novel and early sensation novel, and for The Moonstone (1868), which established many of the ground rules of the modern detective novel and is also perhaps the earliest clear example of the police procedural genre.
