RECENTLY ADAPTED INTO A MAJOR NETFLIX PRODUCTION featuring Lily James, Armie Hammer, Kristin Scott Thomas and Lily Collins. This timeless masterpiece has captivated readers for generations, with Malorie Blackman confessing to immediately restarting the novel upon completion. Stephen King lauds it as 'excellent entertainment', whilst Jim Crace, writing for the Guardian, praises du Maurier's spectacular literary feats.

In this gripping tale, a timid young woman finds herself swept off her feet by the dashing widower Maxim de Winter whilst holidaying in the South of France. Their whirlwind romance culminates in a hasty marriage, but upon arrival at Manderley, de Winter's imposing estate, a palpable shift occurs. The new bride, thrust into an unfamiliar and isolating environment, begins to question how well she truly knows her husband. The spectre of his late wife, the beautiful and enigmatic Rebecca, looms large in every corner of the mansion, casting a long shadow over the fledgling marriage.

Drawing comparisons to Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre, Rebecca explores themes of love, identity, and the struggle against the lingering presence of 'the other woman'. This international bestseller has remained in print since its first publication, captivating new generations of readers with its chilling suspense and the sinister presence of Mrs Danvers, the housekeeper.

This exquisite edition features a striking cover design by renowned textile designer Neisha Crosland, perfectly complementing du Maurier's haunting prose.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
