She was a woman, and for no reason in heaven or earth she loved him. He had kissed her, and she was bound to him for ever.

On a bitter November evening, Mary Yellan crosses the windswept Cornish moors to seek revenge with her Aunt Patience at Jamaica Inn. But the crumbling inn is no safe haven, and Patience is a changed woman, cowering before her domineering husband Joss. In fear of her life, and disturbed by her powerful attraction to Joss's younger brother, Mary is soon plunged into a brutal world of smuggling and murder in which she can trust no one - not even herself.

'The author's stunning evocation of her beloved Cornwall is the real star of this book' RUTH WARE

Recenzii

Jamaica Inn is a first-rate page-turner
For, ultimately, Jamaica Inn is a novel about nothing less than pure evil. Not the lumpen, drunken, thuggish evil that men like Joss can effect, but something much worse - a force that Du Maurier only begins to put into words, with an eerie and shocking kind of power, in the novel's astonishing final act
A perfect fusion of gothic romance and a young woman's rite of passage in the vein of Twilight and Wuthering Heights
Daphne du Maurier has no equal
Jamaica Inn is perhaps the most accomplished historical romance ever written
A dark tale. A brilliant thriller
'Whatever she would have to face in the future, and however frightened she would be, she would not leave Jamaica Inn now . . .'

On a bitter November evening, Mary Yellan crosses the windswept Cornish moors to seek refuge with her Aunt Patience at Jamaica Inn. But the crumbling inn is no safe haven, and Patience is a changed woman, cowering before her domineering husband Joss. Plunged into a brutal world of smuggling and murder, and disturbed by her powerful attraction to Joss's younger brother, Mary knows there is no one she can trust. Only by crossing her own moral line can she save herself...
