The basis for Joseph L. Mankiewicz's cinematic romance starring
Gene Tierney and Rex Harrison.
Burdened by debt after her husband's death, Lucy Muir insists on
moving into the very cheap Gull Cottage in the quaint seaside
village of Whitecliff, despite multiple warnings that the house is
haunted. Upon discovering the rumors to be true, the young widow
ends up forming a special companionship with the ghost of handsome
former sea captain Daniel Gregg. Through the struggles of
supporting her children, seeking out romance from the wrong places,
and working to publish the captain's story as a book, "Blood and
Swash," Lucy finds in her secret relationship with Captain Gregg a
comfort and blossoming love she never could have predicted.
Originally published in 1945, made into a movie in 1947, and later
adapted into a television sitcom in 1968, this romantic tale
explores how love can develop without boundaries, both in this life
and beyond.
With a new foreword by Adriana Trigiani.
