At the centre of "Hide and Seek" a secret waits to be revealed. Why should the apparently respectable painter Valentine Blyth refuse to account for the presence in his household of the beautiful girl known as Madonna? It is not until his young friend Zack Thorpe, in rebellion against his repressive father, gets into bad company and meets a mysterious stranger that the secret of Madonna can be unravelled. Wilkie Collins's third novel combines excitement with charm and humour. In its mixture of the everyday and the extraordinary, "Hide and Seek" forms a bridge between the domestic novel and the sensational fiction for which Collins later became famous.
