Wilkie Collins
This is heralded as the very first mystery novel. Collins, in his great work, created the guidelines for the genre as we know it today: a fabulous diamond stolen, everyone in the house is suspected, three mysterious Indians sworn to protect the jewel at all costs, the upstairs/downstairs tension from the servants, and a brilliant detective who is eccentrically fond of roses.

The performance of the narrator is outstanding, more than 5 stars required. I especially enjoyed Betteridge.
While the story was long and could likely have been condensed, I enjoyed the old English verbiage, social norms, scenery and characters.
A nice retreat into 19th century England

The story surprised me more than once. These were more in the form of gentle turns in the plot than jarring moments, which made the whole experience very enjoyable from first to last.
I also love Robinson Crusoe.
