2. Solsbury Hill
By Susan M. Wyler (Riverhead Books, $16)
The windswept moors of England, a grand estate and a love story of one woman caught between two men who love her powerfully — all inspired by Emily Brontë's beloved classic, "Wuthering Heights." "Solsbury Hill" brings the legend of Catherine and Heathcliff, and that of their mysterious creator herself into a contemporary love story that unlocks the past.
