Before there was Sherlock Holmes or Hercule Poirot, there was the tale of a stolen Indian diamond and a reported Hindu curse. Wilkie Collins' suspenseful Victorian tale—widely considered the first mystery novel in English—comes to life in this meticulously scripted, lavishly filmed adaptation. For fans of period pieces, plot-twists, and romantic adventure, this is a must-see. 5 episodes, 4 hrs, 1 DVD.
