My Next Corelli Book

I'm on a Marie Corelli reading jag. I've finished two books and started a third.

This one is called "The Soul of Lilith." I'm only up around page 50 so I don't know exactly where it's going to go. But it's pretty interesting so far.

There's a mysterious guy, seems like he's something of a hypnotist, searching out the secrets of life and existence. So far he's searching them out by questioning a young woman he has asleep in a room. He has her drugged or something. She doesn't open her eyes, but she responds to questions he gives her.

She's denying that there's such a thing as death. He seems to think she's wrong. I'm hoping it stays good. This book is from the late 1800s sometime.
