fanciful --
In response to your very specific question, I can offer you a very specific answer.
I have reviewed several online bibliographies of Daphne du Maurier's
books, and I am confident that the most clear and authoritative list
of books that were written by her is at this linked website:
The Daphne du Maurier Web Site
http://www.dumaurier.org/bibliogr.html
There are many such online biographies, but some are incomplete and
some mischaracterize one or more of her non-fiction books as novels,
and some include short stories in their list of novels.
For your convenient reference, here is a list of du Maurier's books,
along with their dates of publication.

Search Strategy:
I found the information with the following Google search:
"daphne du maurier" bibliography
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&safe=off&q=daphne+du+maurier%22+bibliography&btnG=Search
As noted above, most of my research time was spent comparing various
lists of her books in order to be confident that I could provide you
with the most accurate, complete and self-explanatory of those lists.
If anything is unclear, I would appreciate it if you would ask for
clarification before rating this answer.
