Correct!
The Moonstone (1868) involves the
disappearance of a priceless Indian diamond and a subsequent puzzling murder. All the classic elements of the genre are present,including red herrings, alibis and sufficient clues for the readerto solve the crime ahead of its hero, Sergeant Cuff of Scotland Yard.
