Book excerpt: Mary Yellan travels across the rain-soaked moors to Jamaica Inn on a cold November evening in respect of her dying mother's request. When she arrives, the coachman's warning begins to reverberate in her mind, as her aunt Patience cowers in front of towering Uncle Joss Merlyn. Mary, terrified of the inn's ominous power, eventually becomes entangled in the murky plots unfolding beyond its decaying walls - and persuaded to love a man she can't trust.
