The Moonstone, by Wilkie Collins

What a story-teller! I enjoyed it tremendously.
Just like cooking, the right amount of spices, not overwhelming, but irresistible taste!
I read his "The Woman in White" in high school, but did not enjoy it very much. It is time to try it again.
Time changed a lot of things ...

I am glad that the Moonstone finally gets back to the Indians. The ending of the three Indians shows how ridiculously the religion is, or the ones who make it are. (Ridiculous to the outsider, but it makes perfect sense to themselves.)
