Book Synopsis



NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING RACHEL WEISZ AND SAM CLAFLIN!

A gothic mystery of obsession, suspicion, and desire from Daphne du Maurier, the legendary author of Rebecca and Jamaica Inn.

A haunting tale of love and deception set in the wild landscapes of Cornwall, My Cousin Rachel grips you from the first page and leaves you questioning long after the last.

When a young heir inherits both fortune and uncertainty after the sudden death of his guardian, questions swirl around the enigmatic woman who enters his world. Is she a grieving widow--or a dangerous manipulator? Every glance, every whispered word, deepens the intoxicating tension between devotion and doubt.

Perfect for fans of gothic suspense, romantic mysteries, and psychological thrillers, this classic novel continues to enthrall generations with its unforgettable heroine, its brooding atmosphere, and its lingering ambiguity that sparks endless debate.

About the Author



Daphne du Maurier was born in London in 1907, the second daughter of a famous stage actor and actress. Her first novel was published in 1931, but it was her 1938 novel Rebecca which made her one of the most successful writers of her time. Alfred Hitchcock's adaptation of the book won the Best Picture Oscar in 1940, and he used her material again for his classic The Birds. In 1969, Du Maurier was created a Dame of the British Empire.

At the age of 81, Du Maurier died at home in her beloved Cornwall, the region that had been the setting for many of her books.
