A sumptuous and darkly comic costume drama about three upper-class young women and their quest for romance just before World War II.
As Jane Austen approaches her forties, her success as a writer is assured and her witty and sharply observed romantic novels are widely admired. To her niece, Fanny Knight - a young, pretty girl desperate to fall in love - Jane is a favourite aunt who offers the wisdom and knowledge to help her in her own search for a happy marriage. Yet, when asked by Fanny to help her vet potential husbands, Jane's usual confident composure is threatened. Surely the woman so capable of writing love on the page must have experienced love herself, so why did she never marry? Protected by her wit, Jane has presented a front as dazzling as many of her novels young heroines, but as she reflects on her own romantic encounters and affairs, we are drawn into the passions, suitors and choices of her life - the cruel flirting, the proposals spurned and the love that seemed to arrive too late. As she recalls missed opportunities, the doubts arise. Did she make the right choice for herself and her family? Could the great romantic expert have been mistaken? And, could her principles about love and marriage possibly have been ill-judged?

But danger threatens the kingdom, even so far as the court of Versailles into which a deadly poison seeps. Louis has completed the first stage of his plan: to build the most beautiful palace in Europe far away from Paris, locking the nobility inside it and exercising absolute control. But the King has created a new and dangerous civilisation where courtiers are ready to do anything to get to the Sun. Behind a veneer of etiquette, they dream of ascending the social ladder to a world of wealth and power. Morality is waning, the poison spreads... Versailles is crumbling faster than it is being built. Blinded by his affection for Madame de Montespan, Louis is deaf to the Church's injunctions. The greatest enemy standing before him is no longer the nobility, nor is it Guillaume d'Orange. The palace that he himself designed could become his worst enemy. Wavering between mysticism and obscurity, diving into the dark side of power, will the king's downward spiral yet see his return to the light?
