About this product
Product Information
Susan Wyler transports us to the landscape in which Catherine and Heathcliff's story began - and where it continues still . . . The windswept moors of England; a grand, rustic estate; and a love story of one woman caught between two men who love her powerfully-all inspired by Emily Bronte's beloved classic, Wuthering Heights . Solsbury Hill brings the legend of Catherine and Heathcliff, and that of their mysterious creator herself, into a contemporary love story that unlocks the past. When a surprise call from a dying aunt brings twenty-something New Yorker Eleanor Abbott to the Yorkshire moors, and the family estate she issuddenly to inherit, she finds a world beyond anything she might have expected. Having left behind a longtime boyfriend, here Eleanor encounters the enigmatic Meadowscarp MacLeod-who challenges and changes her-as well as the pervasive presence of Bronte herself, anda family legacy they may share. With windsthat carve stone and bend trees, the moors are another world, where timeworks differently and remanants of the past are just around a craggy, windswept corner. Eleanor discovers not only ancestors, alive and dead, but a devastating romantic history that bears on her own life, on the history of Wuthering Heights , and on the destinies of all who live in its shadow. Susan Wyler's contemporary take on a classic love story is utterly beguiling. Solsbury Hill is a gorgeously well-written tale of a fraught love affair that takes you from New York to the wild gothic setting of the Yorkshire moors.' Fiona Neill, author of Slummy Mummy and What the Nanny Saw

"Eleanor Abbot, an up-and-coming New York fashion designer, finds her comfortable life suddenly upended following news that her English aunt is dying and wishes to see her. Before she can make her flight, Eleanor first catches her childhood sweetheart cheating. It is thus with a confused and heavy heart that Eleanor finds herself on the windswept moors of Yorkshire in the very house and on the grounds that inspired the classic novel Wuthering Heights. With her aunt's death, Eleanor must come to terms with a surprise inheritance, family secrets, the intriguing ghost of Emily Brontë herself, and an even more intriguing man. . . . [An] enjoyable read."-- Library Journal "[An] oddly beguiling love story."-- Kirkus "Grand love affairs and friendly ghosts inhabit Wyler's ambitious, Gothic-tinged debut. . . .
