In 2050, British newlyweds Jacqueline and Harry are rebuilding Thornfield Hall as their new home. They stumble upon a journal packed in salt that was written by a woman, presumed mad, named Bertha, who lived in the nineteenth century. As they begin to read her journal, their carriage is overturned and their driver killed. In another period and place, sometime after Queen Victorias death, a student named Moksha takes the journal to her teacher Vedanta to read. Or is it possible they are writing it? Back in the future, Jacqueline and Harry read of Berthas struggle to find her identity and her version of the events that led to the fire at Thornfield Hall, all of which is having a strange effect upon Jacqueline. Thornfield Hall possesses a history that increasingly threatens the couples new married life. What secrets did a dead ancestor bury in her book?
