Sobre este livro

Lady Isabel Vane, the beautiful daughter of a ruined earl, marries the honourable lawyer Archibald Carlyle, who has bought her father's estate, East Lynne. Misled by jealousy about her husband's secret meetings with a young neighbour, Barbara Hare, which concern Barbara's brother, falsely accused of murder, she runs away with the seductive Captain Levison, who soon abandons her. Believed dead after a railway accident and disfigured, she returns in disguise as a governess to her own children in her husband's house, where Barbara is now his wife.
