"Poor Miss Finch" by Wilkie Collins is a novel published in 1872. It follows Lucilla Finch, a young blind woman who falls in love with Oscar Dubourg, her reclusive neighbor. When Oscar's medical treatment leaves him permanently disfigured with blue-grey skin—triggering Lucilla's phobia of dark colors—his charming twin brother Nugent arrives from America. As Lucilla undergoes surgery that may restore her sight, a dangerous deception unfolds involving mistaken identity, manipulation, and a race against time to prevent a disastrous marriage.
