To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

 In the weeks since Berenice had met him, she’d come to know him as a good man, a solid worker, and a kind father.  The only thing he ever mistreated were his hats, and only when he was under duress.“What ails you, Carpenter?” asked Berenice, suppressing a smile.“Your pardon, my Lady,” he bowed to Berenice, and nodded to Gareth, “I’ve come about my daughter.”“Jessamine?  What’s happened?”“She didn’t come home last night.  I’ve searched everywhere for her.  My wife, my Martha, she’s worried.”“Whe...re’ve you looked?” asked Gareth.“The great hall, the stables, the cellars under the kitchen.  As soon as the gates were opened, I went down to the camp by the river where the fair people are.  There’s no sign of her.  No-one’s seen her since yesterday afternoon.”The poor man looked as though he were on the verge of tears.Berenice sighed.  This had to happen today, of all days.  She was forced to admit she didn’t much like Jessamine, especially after the events of the previous afternoon.  She’d always done her best to help the girl, to find work for her so she could join in the daily life of the community, but to no avail.  The girl was determined to be a misfit.And now, this.She knew she could trust her own people, but there were strangers in the valley, brought here by the fair.  Although most of them were trustworthy, one or two of them might be tempted to take advantage of a young girl, especially one as brazen as Jessamine.  Search parties would have to be organized.“Gareth, would you ask Sir William to join us?”“Of course, my Lady.”  He always called her ‘my Lady’ when there were other people present.  More and more, as the weeks had passed, he called her by her Christian name when they were alone together.  Such as yesterday, she thought.She watched him walk back to William’s house.  She didn’t know how she’d coped before he came.  Despite all her determination to follow in her father’s footsteps, the task of ruling the valley had been far more than she could manage alone.  Pride alone had kept her going.She knew she’d come to rely on Gareth, to depend on his wise counsel.  Even now, she knew that he, with William’s help, would have the matter of Jessamine’s disappearance organized before the sun was properly over the mountains.“Did your daughter take her possessions with her?”  Berenice asked the carpenter.“Yes, my Lady, such as they are.  A garment or two, some trinkets.”So she planned to leave, thought Berenice, she wasn’t forced.  But why would the girl go now, when she thought she had some hold over Berenice?  It didn’t make sense.The two men were returning.“My Lady, I’ve heard the news,”
