Death Comes to Pemberley, 1st May to 18th June
Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy are happily settled into married life. As preparations are underway for an annual ball, the tranquil atmosphere is shattered by the sudden arrival of Lydia Wickham, Elizabeth’s flighty younger sister, who brings with her news of a murder in the nearby woods.
The victim is Captain Denny, an acquaintance from Mr Darcy’s regiment, and suspicion falls upon Wickham, Lydia’s husband, whose tumultuous past and strained relationship with Darcy make him an easy target for blame. As the investigation unfolds, secrets long buried begin to surface, casting doubt on the innocence of those closest to Elizabeth and Darcy.
With the help of their loyal friend Colonel Fitzwilliam and the insightful guidance of George Wickham’s childhood friend, lawyer Henry Alveston, Elizabeth and Darcy navigate the treacherous waters of rumour and gossip to uncover the truth behind the murder. Along the way, they confront their own vulnerabilities and the complexities of their relationships, testing the strength of their love and the bonds of family.
As the tension mounts and the trial approaches, romance, intrigue and suspense are weaved together in a riveting tale that pays homage to Jane Austen’s beloved characters while offering a fresh and compelling mystery that will captivate you until the final revelation.
