The Moonstone Second Period: Fourth Narrative Part 3

from The Wilkie Collins Library · host Wilkie Collins

In which a careful experiment is undertaken to observe the effects of laudanum on Mr. Franklin Blake, with attentive witnesses watching the replication of events connected to the mysterious Diamond; as the opium’s influence gradually takes hold, the suspense deepens in the quiet, rain-soaked house. Though the trial does not fully achieve its purpose, the evening closes with quiet hope and tender watchfulness, as gratitude and affection quietly intertwine amid the shadow of ongoing uncertainty.
