A great read. What impressed me most about Daphne du Maurier's story about a young woman marrying a wealthy widower with a secret, were how well she wrote descriptive passages. She illustrated the environment as well as she did the players. It was a suspenseful read, one I did not want to put down, even though I had some memory of the story, which I saw portrayed in Hitchcock's film of the same name.
