The young companion of a capricious elderly American woman becomes the wife of the imposing English aristocrat Maximilian de Winter, tormented by a secret grief, and arrives with him at his ancestral estate, Manderley. In the vast, gloomy mansion, the people, the walls, and, it seems, the very air remind the new mistress of her deceased predecessor, the beautiful and refined Rebecca de Winter. Her husband's strange behavior, the wariness and sometimes hostility of the servants, and the general reticence, clearly intended to conceal the death of Maximilian's first wife, plunge the heroine into trepidation. After several months of painful experiences, she will have to learn a carefully hidden truth about the past of the inhabitants of Manderley... The novel "Rebecca" (1938), which made the name of the English writer Daphne du Maurier world famous, was filmed by Alfred Hitchcock almost immediately after its publication, and decades later, having acquired the status of a twentieth-century classic and having received flattering comparisons with "Jane Eyre" by Charlotte Brontë, gave rise to several sequels and adaptations, including "Mrs. de Winter" by Susan Hill, "The Other Rebecca" by Maureen Freely, "Rebecca's Story" by Sally Beaumont.
