Godwin is one of the first exponents of utilitarianism and modern minarchist philosophy. His two most famous works are An Enquiry concerning Political Justice and Things as They Are: The Adventures of Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams is the first mystery novel in which the aristocratic lifestyle is attacked. Caleb is the secretary to a Squire. He unearths a terrible secret and though he has sworn secrecy the squire is not content to leave it alone. The suspense of watching a good man being relentlessly pursued by a powerful and angry man fills this novel.
