The Mystery of Edwin Drood
Book • 1870
The Mystery of Edwin Drood is the final, unfinished novel by Charles Dickens.
The story is set in the fictional town of Cloisterham and centers around Edwin Drood, an orphan who is engaged to Rosa Bud. However, their engagement is complicated by the affections of Neville Landless and the obsessive love of John Jasper, Edwin's uncle and guardian.
The novel takes a mysterious turn when Edwin disappears under unclear circumstances, leaving behind only his watch, chain, and shirt-pin.
Dickens's death after writing only six of the planned twelve installments left the novel without a conclusion, prompting numerous adaptations and continuations by other writers attempting to solve the mystery.
