Although I already made a new topic about it, I have to encourage anyone to read:
The Suspicions of Mr Whicher - Kate Summerscale
Its a true story, and the original detective story (quite literally). Its an historical novel as much a crime novel, and (without spoilers), right to the end you arent sure which way its gonna go, and then when you think its all settled, it really hits you in the guts.
