Did Lizzy Bennet commit murder? What is mailroom-clerk Lizzy hiding from CEO Darcy? Who is creating havoc on a South African wildlife preserve?With a little mystery and a little romance, across the Regency, fantasy, and modern genres, the book takes Jane Austen's characters to wonderful new adventures. May headstrong girls find their hearts' desire!
