On arriving at the gloomy and threatening inn, Mary finds her aunt in a ghost-like state under the thumb of the vicious Joss, and soon realizes that something unusual is afoot at the inn, which has no guests and is never open to the public. The plot follows a group of murderous wreckers who run ships aground, kill the sailors and steal the loot. It is an eerie period piece set in UsefulNotes/{{Cornwall}} in 1820; the real Jamaica Inn still exists and is located in the small village of Bolventor, just off the A30 as it passes across Bodmin Moor (said road actually ran right through the village before the bypass was built in the 1980s).
