Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 6 The Woman in White

Wilkie Collins
Retold by Richard G. Lewis

STAGE 6 - Thriller & Adventure

The woman in white first appears at night on a lonely heath near London and is next seen at a grave-side in Cumberland. Who is she? Where has she come from, and what is her history? She seems alone and friendless, frightened and confused. And it seems she knows a secret - a secret that could bring ruin and shame to a man who will do anything to keep her silent.

This famous mystery thriller by Wilkie Collins has excitement, suspense, romance, and a plot that twists and turns on every page.

How can students improve their English without extra class time?

By reading a lot, at a comfortable level, with titles that really interest them.
