Jamaica Inn by Daphne du Maurier

I've been past Jamaica Inn a few times so was intrigued by the title of the book. I'm also working my way through all of du Maurier's work. The story is set in the beginning of the 19th Century in Cornwall and involves smuggling and 'wrecker's, dastardly characters that lure ships onto the rocks with false lights (I recently watched a documentary that said there's no proof that this ever happened, it's just a myth). The main protagonist is Mary who, through the death of her mother ends up living at Jamaica Inn with her downtrodden aunt and her evil uncle.

It's all a little predictable, I worked out all the so called 'twists' in advance but for all that it was a fairly good read, though not one of du Maurier's best.
