A gripping and heartbreaking novel that re-imagines life
at Wuthering Heights through the eyes of the Earnshaws’
loyal servant, Nelly Dean. Young Nelly Dean has been Hindley’s closest companion for
as long as she can remember, living freely at the great
house, Wuthering Heights. But when the benevolence of the
master brings a wild child into the house, Nelly learns
she must follow in her mother’s footsteps, be called
"servant" and give herself over completely to the demands
of the Earnshaw family. But Nelly is not the only one who finds her life
disrupted by this strange newcomer. As death, illness,
and passion sweep through the house, Nelly suffers
heartache and betrayals at the hands of those she
cherishes most, tempting her to leave it all behind. But
when a new heir is born, a reign of violence begins that
will test even Nelly’s formidable spirit as she finds out
what it is to know true sacrifice. Nelly Dean is a wonderment of storytelling and an
inspired accompaniment to Emily Bronte’s adored work. It
is the story of a woman who is fated to bear the pain of
a family she is unable to leave, and unable to save.
