William Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was an British novelist, playwright, and writer of short stories. Mad Monkton is a bizarre ghost tale. It is stated that a stress of hereditary madness blights the Monkton family, heirs to the huge area of Wincot Abbey. Rumours in the neighbourhood are that Alfred, the youngest scion, has inherited this insanity. His peculiar behaviour certainly points like that. Alfred is employed to his child years sweetheart, Ada Elmslie. But at the very moment in time when various hurdles to the match are defeat, Alfred out of the blue departs for Italy on what is apparently a outdoors goose run after, seeking the corpse of his disreputable uncle, who's believed to have been wiped out in a duel. But what would have driven Alfred to do this? And why does indeed he so desperately want to find his past due uncle's remains? The enigma is bizarre and gruesome...and the story takes on one weird twist after another.
