Castle Dor began life as the unfinished last novel by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch, the celebrated 'Q', and was passed by his daughter to Daphne du Maurier. The story is based around the legend of Tristan and Iseult, but set in 19th century Cornwall.
Set in 1860's Cronwall, Castle Dor weaves the boring tale of Amyot (a young Breton sailor) and Linnet (the young and beautiful wife of an extremely old man). How the pair meet, love and ultimately live out the tragic end of their fabled counterparts (Tristan & Iseult) makes for a snooze fest of epic proportions.

Castle Dor is set in Cornwall, around the river Fowey, in the mid-nineteenth century and it tells of the Breton lad Amyot Trestane who falls in love with the newly married Linnet Lewarne, an affair which tragically re-enacts the doomed love of Tristan and Iseult from the Arthurian legend.
