'I ask you,' retorted Jasper, 'because you were the last person in his company, and he is not to be found.' The Mystery of Edwin Drood, Dickens's last novel, lay unfinished at his death.

This edition contains Dickens' working plans for the novel, and the text is that of the authoritative Clarendon edition. …
