Mr. Johnathan Darcy and Miss Juliet Tilney are finally reunited after a year apart when they are both invited to Rosings Park after multiple attempts on Lady Catherine de Bourgh's life. Surrounded by family and friends, it becomes difficult to tell friend from foe, and time is running out, not just for Lady Catherine, but also for the potential future of both the young investigators.
I enjoyed this, the third in the series, because Pride and Prejudice is my favorite Austen novel and we got to revisit that word a little more closely. Gray did a wonderful job of bringing Austen's characters to life in a way that felt authentic in ways expected and unexpected. For example, the glimpse of Charlotte Collins' life was just what I had imagined it to be, but the way Anne de Bourgh is portrayed gives her a richness and a fullness I came to appreciate.
