"Gloomy secrets surround the infamous Jamaica Inn, which lies lonely in the moor of Cornwall. There it is the young orphan Mary after the death of her mother. With her aunt Patience and her uncle Joss, she is said to find a new home. But the inn near the rugged, storm-swept shore is home to dark figures that go after evil business - and their leader seems to be Mary's uncle. More and more Mary is entangled in the machinations of men and is in danger of life. What opaque game drives Joss' younger brother Jem, with whom Mary has fallen in love?"
