Ehestandstragödie

Ehestandstragödie

by Wilkie Collins

In Wilkie Collins' "Ehestandstragödie" (im Original "A Plot in Private Life" in "The Queen of Hearts" erschienen) heiratet eine reiche Witwe einen Mann ohne Vermögen. Die Ehe ist von Anfang an von Konflikten geprägt, und der Mann verschwindet spurlos. Die Aussage der Kammerzofe wirft ein dunkles Licht auf das Geschehen und bringt die Ermittlungsbehörden auf den Plan. Der Leser wird in eine Welt voller Geheimnisse, Lügen und Intrigen gezogen, während er versucht, die Wahrheit hinter dem Verschwinden des Mannes zu lüften.
