Charlotte Bront‰´s Jane Eyre retold against the backdrop of San Francisco´s most fabulous-and dangerous-elites.
After losing her parents in a tragic accident, surfer girl Janie Mason trades the sunny beaches of Hawaii for the cold fog of San Francisco and new guardians-the Rochesters-that she´s never even met. Janie feels hopelessly out of place in their world of Napa weekends, fancy cotillions, and chauffeurs. The only person she can relate to is Daniel, a fellow surfer. Meeting him makes Janie feel like things might be looking up.
Still, something isn´t right in the Rochester mansion. There are noises-screams-coming from the attic that everyone else claims they can´t hear. Then John, the black sheep of the family, returns after getting kicked out of yet another boarding school. Soon Janie finds herself torn between devil-may-care John and fiercely loyal Daniel. Just when she thinks her life can´t get any more complicated, she learns the truth about why the Rochesters took her in. They want something from Janie, and she´s about to see just how far they´ll go to get it.
