    Summary

    "Danny," she said, holding her arms out, and I went to her, surprised, embracing her gratefully. "Danny," she said again, her voice altogether different, hard somehow, as though she was fighting to hide unwanted emotions. "I have something to tell you and you won't like it."

    Summary

    "That night, I dreamt I went to Manderley. Not the Manderley of today, with its field of azaleas, and its wide, sloping lawn, and its clear paths through the woods to the sea; in the dream I went to Manderley again as it was on that long ago summer afternoon. It seemed to me I stood in the sailing cove by the woods, looking now down at the beach empty of cottages or dinghies, now into the dark and tangled trees. I wore my schoolgirl’s frock and my hair was long and messy in the wind, and I was hesitant to trespass though I wanted to know what was through the woods, or perhaps, what was in the woods, what dark mysteries awaited. Then Helen was beside me, also a girl, lovely and fresh-faced, holding her hat and laughing, and she took my hand and we ducked beneath a branch together."

    Rebecca's version of the story.
