'Every day, haunted still by doubt, I ask myself a question which I cannot answer.
Was Rachel innocent or guilty?'

Philip Ashley has been raised by his cousin Ambrose as heir to his beautiful Cornish estate. But this close-knit world is shattered when Ambrose travels to Florence, where he unexpectedly falls in love and marries - only to die of a strange illness. Before long, his beautiful, mysterious widow arrives in England - and despite himself, Philip is caught in her spell. But is Rachel a victim, a saviour - or a murderess?

Press Reviews

  • Sunday Telegraph
    Du Maurier has no equal
  • Kirkus Reviews
    This comes closer to Rebecca than anything Miss du Maurier has done and is, I think, one of her best novels, ingeniously contrived as to plot, successfully realized as to characters
  • GUARDIAN 'From the first page . . . the reader is back in the moody, brooding atmosphere of Rebecca’
    In the same category as REBECCA, but an even more consummate piece of storytelling
  • NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
  • Guardian
    She wrote exciting plots, she was highly skilled at arousing suspense, and she was, too, a writer of fearless originality

  • Margaret Forster

    No other popular writer has so triumphantly defied classification . . . She satisfied all the questionable criteria of popular fiction, and yet satisfied the exacting requirements of "real literature", something very few novelists ever do
  • New York Times Book Review
    From the first page . . . the reader is back in the moody, brooding atmosphere of Rebecca
