Death Comes to Pemberley

📙 The world is classic Jane Austen. The mystery is vintage P.D. James.

In their six years of marriage, Elizabeth and Darcy have forged a peaceful, happy life for their family at Pemberley, Darcy’s impressive estate.

But on the eve of their annual autumn ball, chaos descends. A chaise appears, rocking down the path from Pemberley’s wild woodland. As it pulls up, Lydia Wickham – Elizabeth Bennet’s younger, unreliable sister – stumbles out screaming that her husband has been murdered.

Plunged into frightening mystery and a lurid murder trial, the lives of Pemberley’s owners and servants alike may never be the same . . .
