内容简介 在线阅读本书

The Restoration Court knows Lady Dona St Columb to be ripe for any folly, any outrage that will alter the tedium of her days. But there is another, secret Dona who longs for a life of honest love -- and sweetness, even if it is spiced with danger. It is this Dona who flees the stews of London for remote Navron, looking for peace of mind in its solitary woods and hidden creeks. She finds there the passion her spirit craves -- in the love of a daring pirate hunted by all Cornwall, a Frenchman who, like Dona, would gamble his life for a moment's joy.
作者简介 Daphne du Maurier (1907-89) was the daughter of the artist and novelist Gerald du Maurier and the granddaughter of the actor-manager George du Maurier. One of the 20th century's most popular writers, she lived most of her life in her beloved Cornwall.
