‘Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.’
First edition – with the fragile dust jacket in near fine, unrestored, and thus scarce condition – of this iconic gothic mystery.

As the story unfolds, the second Mrs de Winter increasingly finds herself haunted by her glamorous predecessor, Rebecca, and tormented by the sinister housekeeper, Mrs Danvers, subsequently leading her to uncover an unexpected tragedy...
