Description: Edward Rochester is to wed governess Jane Eyre. Their marriage is should bring him peace and happiness and a tidy conclusion to his long-standing secret ordeal. But Edward is still vulnerable, with threats to his future from the jealous Blanche Ingram, unscrupulous Richard Mason, scheming Grace Poole, covetous St. John Rivers, John Eyre's attorneys, Edward's own guilty conscience, and his certainty that Jane will abandon him if she learns his secret. Will a Jamaican investigation into Bertha Mason's past set him free? Or will the truth become an impediment greater than Edward and Jane's love, succeeding to drive her from Thornfield Hall forever?
