A ghost was the sign of an unacknowledged horror. It indicated a gap opened by trauma, an event that because it had not been assimilated must be perpetually relived. There were no words, so there was a haunting.
Kate Summerscale, The Haunting of Alma Fielding
All the suspects in a classic murder mystery have secrets, and to keep them they lie, dissemble, evade the interrogations of the investigator. Everyone seems guilty because everyone has something to hide. For most of them, though, the secret is not murder. This is the trick on which detective fiction turns.
The danger, in a real murder case, was that the detective might fail to solve the crime he had been sent to investigate. He might instead get lost in the tangle of the past, mired in the mess he had dug up.
The Suspicions of Mr Whicher, or the Murder at Road Hill House, by Kate Summerscale
This book just arrived and it feels amazing, I held it for ages just because of the texture and weight and the feel of the filigree. I'm almost finished reading S. by JJ Abrams, it's a long and complex read but once I'm done, I think this one just topped the 'tbr' list. The story sounds absolutely juicy.
The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher - Series Review
"There can be no peace without the truth."
Meet Jack Whicher (Paddy Consadine), a London police detective (one of the first seven hired when Scotland Yard was established) who later becomes a freelance "private enquiries agent." By 1860, he is generally regarded as the best detective in London, if not all of England, a man with a solid sense of right and wrong who pursues the truth relentlessly, no matter where it leads or who it inconveniences. At the same time, there's an air of melancholy about him. Is it just the cumulative effect of a career spent seeing the worst the human race has to offer, or is there something dark in his past he hasn't yet come to terms with?
The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher is a series of four television movies produced between 2011 and 2014: The Murder at Road Hill House, The Murder in Angel Lane, Beyond the Pale, and The Ties That Bind. The first installment is the film version of the 2008 nonfiction book of the same name by Kate Summerscale, which tells the story of a sensational 1860 murder case which was initially investigated by the real Jack Whicher. The other three are stories of fictional crimes set in the year 1865 and after, interwoven with historical events from Jack Whicher's biography.

Wilkie Collins had already used secret diaries as vehicles for his stories, and in The Woman in White (1860) he included a scene of a diaryâs discovery: when Marian Halcombe succumbs to a delirious fever, Count Fosco opens her journal and reads of her hatred of him. In Armadale (1866), Collins took up the question of why a woman would preserve a record of her dark deeds. âWhy do I keep a diary at all?â asks his villainous heroine Lydia Gwilt. âWhy did the clever thief the other day (in the English newspaper) keep the very thing to convict him in the shape of a record of everything he stole? Why are we not perfectly reasonable in all that we do? Why am I not always on my guard and never inconsistent with myself, like a wicked character in a novel? Why? Why? Why? I donât care why!.âŚThereâs a reason that nobody can answerâmyself included.â
