spoilers not to be used in descriptions, and this isn't a spoiler anyway, as it was never actually written by Dickens

The solution of the mystery is actually known: [[spoiler:Drood's uncle, John Jasper, is the murderer]]. Dickens had told several people whodunnit, and his friend John Forster later published a synopsis of the novel's planned conclusion bringing together various details Dickens had mentioned to him, including Edwin's fate, whodunnit, and the intended fates of other significant characters. This hasn't stopped multiple people writing their own endings, not all of them agreeing with Forster's account.

As was usual for Dickens, the novel was written and published in serial installments; Dickens [[AuthorExistenceFailure died after completing only six]] of the projected twelve installments, leaving the novel incomplete and the mystery unresolved.
