Synopsis
Daphne Du Maurier's story of John and Jean, two men who lead their lives in completely opposite styles. John's existence is drearily detached, with no ties and no commitments, while Jean is encumbered by a warring family, an ailing business, a sordid past and too many beautiful, demanding women.

About the Author
In many ways the life of Daphne du Maurier resembles that of a fairy tale. Born into a family with a rich artistic and historical background, the daughter of a famous actor-manager, she was indulged as a child and grew up enjoying enormous freedom from financial and parental restraint. She spent her youth sailing boats, travelling on the Continent with friends, and writing stories. A prestigious publishing house accepted her first novel when she was in her early twenties, and its publication brought her not only fame but the attentions of a handsome soldier, Major (later Lieutenant-General Sir) Frederick Browning, who married her.
