I Say No!

Young orphan Emily Brown has recently finished her studies at a school for young ladies and is preparing to step into adulthood. She is courted by two eligible suitors: art teacher Alban Morris and priest Miles Mirabel. Both claim to... love her, but only one tells the truth, while the other may be involved in the suspicious death of her father…
Emily must take on the role of a detective to find out what happened four years ago and why the truth has been hidden from her for so long?

1. «I Say No!» — a vivid example of the «sensational novel» of Wilkie Collins, a classic of Victorian literature and one of the most influential writers of the 19th century. The author combines a gothic atmosphere of mysteries with the everyday details of the era.
2. The atmosphere of Victorian England: immerse yourself in the world of exclusive schools for young ladies, strict morals, and hidden passions. Collins masterfully blends the ordinary reality of the era with gothic motifs — mysteries, suspicions, and sinister enigmas.
3. An engaging plot with a strong heroine: Emily Brown, unlike most of her peers, thinks not only about choosing a suitor; she investigates the suspicious death of her father, facing deception and secrets of the past. The girl challenges circumstances and learns to say «no» to lies and manipulation. This is a story about growing up, courage, and finding one's voice.
