Murder mystery by Wilkie Collins, set in London and Venice.

1860: Countess Narona is left a fortune when her rich husband dies. Years later an apparition wants revenge. Stars Harry Lloyd.

In 1860, the formidable Countess Narona marries a rich young aristocrat in London - but shortly after travelling to Venice her husband dies, apparently of natural causes, leaving the Countess a rich woman.
