Poor, obscure and plain, Jane Eyre begins life as a lonely orphan in the household of her hateful aunt. Despite the oppression she endures at home, and the torture of boarding school, Jane manages to just emerge with her integrity and passionate spirit unbroken but locked up in the attic of her imagination lives a woman so passionate, so full of longing, she must be guarded night and day for fear of the havoc she would wreak. When she finds work as a governess in a mysterious mansion, it seems she has finally met her match with the darkly fascinating Mr Rochester. But Thornfield Hall contains an explosive secret – one that could keep Jane and Rochester apart forever.
Adapted from one of the world’s most beloved novels, Jane Eyre is a startlingly modern blend of passion, romance, mystery, and suspense.
