Written in 1959, this book has been read by (or read to) three generations of children. The author preserved, nurtured, and revised the manuscript of The Mystery of the Red-Brick House for 42 years. It traveled with the author from Reading, Pennsylvania to Grand Rapids, Michigan, Fort Wayne, Indiana, Dayton and Portsmouth, Ohio and back to Fort Wayne. It was finally published in 2001. This is a mystery for young adults (from 9 to 90). The story involves five siblings who move into a summer house that has been vacant for years. It is dissipated, looks spooky, even haunted. Strange things begin to happen, and a mystery begins to unfold. Muddy footprints on the porch, voices in the night, and a trap door to the attic that closes by itself, convince the five children something is definitely wrong. Are they in danger? they wonder as they try to solve the mystery of the red-brick house.

Charles Dickens's final, unfinished novel, and one that has puzzled readers and inspired writers since its publication, The Mystery of Edwin Drood is edited with an introduction by David Paroissien in Penguin Classics. Edwin Drood is contracted to marry orphan Rosa Bud when he comes of age, but when they find that duty has gradually replaced affection, they agree to break off the engagement. Shortly afterwards, in the middle of a storm on Christmas Eve, Edwin disappears, leaving nothing behind but some personal belongings and the suspicion that his jealous uncle John Jasper, madly in love with Rosa, is the killer. And beyond this presumed crime there are further intrigues: the dark opium dens of the sleepy cathedral town of Cloisterham, and the sinister double life of Choirmaster Jasper, whose drug-fuelled fantasy life belies his respectable appearance. Dickens died before completing The Mystery of Edwin Drood, leaving its tantalising mystery unsolved and encouraging successive generations of readers to turn detective. This edition contains an introduction by David Paroissien, discussing the novel's ending, with a chronology, notes, original illustrations by Samuel Luke Fildes, appendices on opium use in the nineteenth century, the 'Sapsea Fragment' and Dickens's plans for the story's conclusion. Charles Dickens is one of the best-loved novelists in the English language, whose 200th anniversary was celebrated in 2012. His most famous books, including Oliver Twist, Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities, David Copperfield and The Pickwick Papers, have been adapted for stage and screen and read by millions.
