John Eyre: A Tale of Darkness and Shadow by Mimi MatthewsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
October 1843 After the death of Lady Helen Burn, at Lowton, tutor John Eyre takes a position far away in Yorkshire. At Thornfield Hall home to Mrs Rochester and her two young wards, Stephen and Peter.
Following the deaths of her parents and acquiring her inheritance, Bertha Mason, travels the continent and meets her future husband Mr. Rochester. The story of her life from then is told in conjunction with Eyre's until they met.
An entertaining and well-written Victorian Gothic story, blending seamlessly two classic books. With its wonderful portrayal of the two main characters and their story.
