This is the story of the first Mrs Rocherster. It is a prequel or a sister novel to Jane Eyre.
It is set mainly in the Caribbean and maybe it was the fecund heat of the tropics rotting everyone's existence but I found that there was a lot of second guessing with the plot, a lot of reading between the lines and still not being sure that you "got" it.
The writing style was not for me.
