About this listen

Published 10 years after Collins’s most popular novel The Woman in White, Man and Wife centres on the confused and inequitable marriage laws of 19th-century Britain, reflecting the author’s own antipathy toward the institution. The plot follows the fortunes of a woman who, committed to marriage with one man, comes to believe that she may have inadvertently married his friend, according to the archaic laws of Scotland and Ireland. Collins shows himself to be a masterly storyteller, seamlessly moving the action from a country house to a suburb of London, and into a world of deceit and murder.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A nonstop thrill ride

My, my, Wilkie Collins does it again! This book was so difficult to put down! It was full of romance, drama, intrigue, plotting, and was a delight from start to finish.
I really love Collins’ way of writing such rich descriptions for his characters. Can’t say enough good about this author or this book!
