The Mystery of Edwin Drood by Charles Dickens

In the cathedral town of Cloisterham, young Edwin Drood disappears under mysterious circumstances just as his engagement begins to falter. Suspicion falls on his opium-addicted uncle, but no one can be sure what truly happened. As new characters arrive and tensions rise, the mystery deepens—but the story was left unfinished by the author’s death. The plot builds an eerie, gothic atmosphere filled with secrecy and psychological intrigue. It’s an unfinished but compelling puzzle of identity and motive.
