Description

On a bitter November evening, young Mary Yellan journeys across the rainswept moors to Jamaica Inn to honour her mother's dying request. The warning of the coachman echoes in her memory as, terrified of the inn's brooding power, she becomes ensnared in the dark schemes enacted behind its walls.
