About this listen

You may think you know the story. Penniless orphan Jane Eyre begins a new life as a governess at Thornfield Hall, where she meets one dark, brooding Mr Rochester – and, Reader, she marries him. Or does she?

Prepare for an adventure of Gothic proportions, in which all is not as it seems, a certain gentleman is hiding more than skeletons in his closets, and one orphan Jane Eyre, aspiring author Charlotte Brontë and supernatural investigator Alexander Blackwood are about to be drawn together on the most epic ghost hunt this side of Wuthering Heights.

Critic reviews

'Holds all the flavor of a juicy period novel yet with the addition of numerous, witty asides. Full of wry humor and laugh-out-loud commentary. The authors' affection for their source material is abundantly clear in this clever, romantic farce.' (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
'A delightfully deadpan deconstruction of a Gothic novel, with a ghost almost no one can see providing the commentary. Marvelously self-aware and almost too clever for its own good.' (Booklist, starred review)
'A madcap story of ghosts, possession, revenge and murder. Humorously blends fact with fiction and offers a gentler, more hopeful outcome for Charlotte, her siblings and her heroine.' (School Library Journal)

A bit ridiculous, nothing serious at all but it was a good laugh. Loved the narration.

Ridiculously funny
