W. F. Howes is going to publish Daphne du Maurier’s catalogue, featuring 25 works, many of which have never been released in audiobook format before.

A starstudded voice acting line-up has been assembled for the first four audiobooks in the series. Bridgerton’s next leading man, Luke Thompson, will perform My Cousin Rachel, while Holliday Grainger is set to perform Rebecca. Annabel Scholey will voice Frenchman’s Creek, and Kathryn Drysdale will lend her voice to Jamaica Inn.

In the bitter November wind, Mary Yellan crosses Bodmin Moor to Jamaica Inn. Her mother's dying wish was that she take refuge there with her Aunt Patience. But when Mary arrives, the warning of the coachman echoes in her mind. Jamaica Inn has a desolate power and behind its crumbling walls, Patience is a changed woman, cowering before her brooding, violent husband.

When Mary discovers the inn's dark secrets, the truth is more terrifying than anything she could possibly imagine and she is forced to collude in her uncle's murderous schemes. Against her will, she finds herself powerfully attracted to her uncle's brother, a man she dares not trust.

Jamaica Inn is a dark and gripping gothic tale that will remind listeners of two other great classics, Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights. This was also made into a film, also called Jamaica Inn, directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
