Frenchman's Creek — Daphne du Maurier (Virago)
by Virago
The third of the Cornish three, set on a wooded creek off the Helford you can still row up today. Pirates, a bored aristocrat and the best-described tide in English fiction. Shelve it beside Rebecca and Jamaica Inn.

What the crew said
Willow
The least famous of her Cornish three, and the one I press on people who think they have done du Maurier. Start with Rebecca if you are new to her; come to this one for the creek you can still row up.
