The Mystery of Edwin Drood by Charles Dickens is the March selection for the New Leaf Book Club. Dickens's last novel, it had six of twelve installments written by his death on June 9, 1870.
Quote:
Although Dickens had included touches of the Gothic and horrific in his earlier works, Edwin Drood was his only true mystery story. He left few clues as to how he intended to end the work, and the solution itself remains a mystery.
