Both a spellbinding love story and a superb evocation of Cornwall's
mythic past, Castle Dor is a book with unique and fascinating
origins. It began life as the unfinished last novel of Sir Arthur
Quiller-Couch, the celebrated 'Q', and was passed by his daughter
to Daphne du Maurier whose storytelling skills were perfectly
suited to the task of completing the old master's tale. The result
is this magical, compelling recreation of the legend of Tristan and
Iseult, transplanted in time to the Cornwall of the last century. A
chance encounter between the Breton onion-seller, Amyot Trestane,
and the newly-wed Linnet Lewarne launches their tragic story,
taking them in the fateful footsteps of the doomed lovers of
Cornish legend . . .
