About this listen

Set in the atmospheric town of Cloisterham, the novel centers on the sudden disappearance of young Edwin Drood, a man with a tangled web of relationships and a dark past. As those closest to him—his fiancée Rosa, his uncle Jasper, and a colorful array of town residents—become embroiled in the search for the truth, the lines between innocence and guilt blur in a chilling way.

With Dickens’ signature blend of sharp social commentary, complex characters, and atmospheric tension, The Mystery of Edwin Drood explores themes of obsession, betrayal, and the depths of human nature. The suspense builds to an unnerving climax, but with the story tragically left unfinished by Dickens’ death, the mystery of what truly happened to Edwin Drood remains unsolved.

This unfinished masterpiece, rich with intrigue and ambiguity, invites readers to become detectives themselves, pondering the possibilities of a story that, in true Dickens fashion, is as much about the human heart as it is about the crimes of the mind.
