Sneak Peak
Still there remained my dear Cousin Monica, and my pleasant and trusted friend, Lord Ilbury; and in less than a week arrived an invitation from Lady Mary to the Grange, for me and Milly, to meet Lady Knollys. It was accompanied, she told me, by a note from Lord Ilbury to my uncle, supporting her request; and in the afternoon I received a message to attend my uncle in his room.

Synopsis
Uncle Silas: A Tale of Bartram-Haugh: classic literature: By Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu is a compelling thriller that tells the human story behind the mystery. As a work of sensation fiction, the Victorian Gothic mystery-thriller book has also been praised by both modern reviewers and critics. It is a classic example of the genre's locked-room mystery. The book is a first-person account written from the perspective of Maud Ruthyn, a young heiress who lives in their Knowl house with her somber, reclusive father Austin Ruthyn. She progressively learns more about her uncle Silas Ruthyn, the family's "black sheep," who was formerly a notorious rake and gambler but is now reportedly a genuinely repentant Christian, via her father and her worldly, upbeat cousin Lady Monica Knollys. The strange death of a guy that Silas owed a large gambling debt to--and who committed himself in a sealed, ostensibly impregnable chamber in Silas's home at Bartram-Haugh--has damaged Silas' image.
