À propos de cet audio

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.

I loved this book. The story drew me in completely and had enough danger to keep me on the edge. The narrator had a voice that I could listen to for ages--I just love the tone of her voice. Occasionally, she slipped and used a woman's voice for her male characters, which confused me for a few moments, but overall, an excellent performance of a well-written story. I was slightly disappointed at the ending... but I suppose the main character's choice had to be what it was. This book was worth the read, but I would not recommend it for my teenagers because of the blaspheme and swears.
