Über dieses Hörbuch
A brand-new recording of the classic work, narrated by Kathryn Drysdale, star of Bridgerton and The Windsors.
An unforgettable story of murder, mystery and passion, from the bestselling author of Rebecca.
No human being could live in this wasted country and remain like other people; the very children would be born twisted . . .
After the death of her mother, Mary Yellan crosses the windswept Cornish moors to Jamaica Inn, the home of her Aunt Patience. But she finds Patience a changed woman, cowering before her domineering, vicious husband Joss. Behind its crumbling walls, the inn harbours a dark secret - and Mary is soon dragged into a dangerous world of smuggling and murder. Disturbed by her powerful attraction to Joss's younger brother, and in fear of her life, Mary is forced to cross her own moral line to save herself.
A dark and gripping gothic tale, masterfully written by one of the twentieth century's best loved storytellers.

'Jamaica Inn is a novel about nothing less than pure evil ... with an eerie and shocking kind of power, in the novel's astonishing final act' - JULIE MYERSON, GUARDIAN
