A collection of suspenseful stories exploring ordinary people pushed to emotional extremes where hidden fears and moral tensions erupt into life-altering decisions, from the bestselling author of Rebecca.

"Her peerless craftmanship, her eerie sense of the macabre, her gift for sheer story telling come to full fruition." —Kirkus Reviews

In this collection of suspenseful tales in which fantasies, murderous dreams and half-forgotten worlds are exposed, Daphne du Maurier explores the boundaries of reality and imagination. Her characters are caught at those moments when the delicate link between reason and emotion has been stretched to the breaking point.

Often chilling, sometimes poignant, these stories display the full range of Daphne du Maurier's considerable talent.


"The appeal of romance and the clash of highly-charged emotions." —New York Herald Tribune

"One of the last century's most original literary talents." —Daily Telegraph

"She wrote exciting plots . . . a writer of fearless originality." —The Guardian
