But when he takes her to his country estate, Manderly, all her confidence disappears, especially in the face of Maxim's dour and mysterious housekeeper, Mrs. Danvers, and as odd rumors reach her, the second Mrs. de Winter decides to find out everything she can about her predecessor, Rebecca.“究竟是什么样的金手指会让你在魂魄都消散的情况下活下来？”他从怀中取出一面镜子，仔仔细细地在周遭照了一圈，没有发现岑青魂魄存在的迹象，这才放下心来，“哈，果然是个自我毁灭的疯子。”
