The windswept moors of England, a grand rustic estate, and a love story of one woman caught between two men who love her powerfully—all inspired by Emily Bront├½'s beloved classic, Wuthering Heights. Solsbury Hill brings the legend of Catherine and Heathcliff, and that of their mysterious creator, into a contemporary love story that unlocks the past.

When a surprise call from a dying aunt brings twentysomething New Yorker Eleanor Abbott to the Yorkshire moors—and the family estate she is about to inherit—she finds a world beyond anything she might have expected. Having left behind an American fianc├®, here Eleanor meets Meadowscarp Macleod, a young man who challenges and changes her. Here, too, she encounters the presence of Bront├½ herself and discovers a family legacy they may share.

With winds powerful enough to carve stone and bend trees, the moors are another world—one where time and space work differently. Remnants of the past are just around a craggy, windswept corner. For Eleanor this means ancestors and a devastating romantic history that bears on her own life, on the history of the novel Wuthering Heights, and on the destinies of all who live in its shadow.

Susan M. Wyler has been writing since she was seven. A poet and historian with advanced degrees in cultural history from UCLA and Oxford, she has traveled the world, speaks four languages, teaches yoga and meditation, and is a writing teacher and an editor. She lives in Los Angeles.

Kate Reading is an Audie Award–winning narrator and has received numerous Earphones Awards from AudioFile magazine. She is also a theater actor in the Washington, DC, area and has been a member of the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company since 1987.

Reviews

“Susan Wyler’s contemporary take on a classic love story is utterly beguiling. Solsbury Hill is a gorgeously well-written tale of a fraught love affair that takes you from New York to the wild gothic setting of the Yorkshire moors.”

“The Yorkshire setting is vividly drawn and its inhabitants satisfyingly complex.”

“With a nod to Wuthering Heights, vivid details of Yorkshire moors and deliberate, thoughtful pacing make for an enchanting story. Kate Reading’s precise narration gives the listener time to savor the atmosphere…Smart and engaging.”

“[An] enjoyable read by an author worth watching.”
