A wealthy and secretive widower re-marries and brings his unworldly second wife to his country estate, Manderley. The second Mrs.de Winter soon realizes everything at Manderley (run by the terrifying housekeeper Mrs. Danvers) is overshadowed by the accidental death of her predecessor, Rebecca. A suspenseful and romantic old favorite.

— Sarah Donner

Rebecca has everything; romance, drama, mystery. This book tells the story of a woman haunted by the memory of her husband's late wife. Dame Daphne does gothic so well even Hitchcock couldn't capture the magic of this book. — Arabella Peterson

Description

The reader is taken into an isolated grey stone mansion on the windswept Cornish coast with these lines, as the second Mrs. Maxim de Winter recalls the terrible events that occurred as she began her new life as the young bride of a husband she scarcely knew. For there were phantoms of a time gone but not forgotten in every part of the vast house, a past devotedly preserved by Mrs. Danvers, the malevolent housekeeper: a suite pristine and unspoiled, clothing laid out and ready to be worn, but not by any of the great house's current residents. The second Mrs. de Winter travelled in the shadow of her mysterious predecessor, intent on uncovering the deepest secrets and shattering the most terrifying illusions.
