HISTORY OF THE MYSTERY



HISTORY OF THE MYSTERY 1853
Most of the novels that Charles Dickens wrote contained elements of mystery and suspense, but were embedded in stories about the social injustices of the time. The only true mystery he wrote was "The Mystery of Edwin Drood" in 1870. Unfortunately he died before he finished it. It's the perfect murder mystery because it's forever unsolved, not that scholars and writers haven't tried.
