The Moonstone, a yellow diamond looted from an Indian temple and believed to bring bad luck to its owner, is bequeathed to Rachel Verinder on her eighteenth birthday. That very night the priceless stone is stolen again and when Sergeant Cuff is brought in to investigate the crime, he soon realizes that no one in Rachel's household is above suspicion. Hailed by T. S. Eliot as 'the first, the longest, and the best of modern English detective novels', "The Moonstone" is a marvellously taut and intricate tale of mystery, in which facts and memory can prove treacherous and not everyone is as they first appear.
audiobook推荐BJ Harrison 朗读版本，表演一流，给满分。文本一星扣在sci-fi部分，导致宝石消失的原因的偶然性太大，这是故事设计的硬伤。故事有点太长，缩短为2/3 更好。角色方面，Betteredge和 Miss Clack 这两角色塑造得很好。阅读难度不高，比哈代容易多了，跟《傲慢与偏见》相近。

此书与我气场不合...本来读英文觉得百般不适，在想是不是我英文太差，于是去找了一下中文译本，发现还是很hmmm（beteredge的叙述爹味好重啊

书毕竟太早了，闲白比较多，作为第一部英国侦探小说故事还是不错的。更推荐bbc同名迷你剧，很精彩。英文句式读起来很别扭，也很拖沓。曾经很想看的一本书，抽时间随意读完。
