Description

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.” As a young orphan, Jane Eyre is thrown upon the mercy of an aunt and cousins who are anything but merciful, and when they send her away to an austere boarding school for charity cases, it seems she will never be allowed to forget her humble beginnings. However, Jane has a quiet inner strength and resourcefulness, and when she take on a role as governess at Thornfield Hall, she quickly gains both the affection and respect not only of her young pupil, but also the child's guardian, the fierce and brooding Mr Rochester. Perhaps Jane has finally found the love for which she has always longed? But Mr Rochester has a dark secret. A secret that will rock Thornfield Hall to its very foundations…

Patrice Lawrence worked in the charity sector for 20 years before becoming a full-time writer for both children and adults. She is best known for her gritty, hard-hitting novels for young adult readers, the first of which, Orangeboy, won the Waterstones Book Prize for Older Children and the YA Book Prize, was shortlisted for the Costa Children’s Book Award and nominated for the Carnegie Medal; her second, Indigo Donut, was shortlisted for the YA Book Prize and won the the Crimefest YA Prize. In 2021 Patrice was awarded an MBE for Services to Literature in the Queen's Birthday Honours and won the Jhalak Prize's inaugural children's and young adult category for her book Eight Pieces of Silva.
