Hide and Seek was Wilkie Collins' third published novel. It is the first of his novels involving the solution of a mystery, the elements of which are clearer to the reader than to the novel's characters. Suspense is created from the reader's uncertainty as to which characters will find out the truth, when and how. The novel has a convoluted plot, in common with many of Collins' works. It falls into two parts: the history of "Madonna" GriceMatthew Grice's discovery of her. Hide and Seek was hailed by both contemporary and modern critics 8] to be an advance on his previous work, the sensational melodrama Basil, though inferior to The Woman in White and other novels of his mature period. iBoo World's Classics iBoo Press House uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work.
