'The Dead Secret' explores the relationship between a fallen woman, her illegitimate daughter and the recovery of a hidden secret. Set in rugged Cornwall, the novel blends romance with Gothic drama, and in characterisation and setting, clearly anticipates the qualities of Collins's next novel, 'The Woman in White'.
