A richly entertaining recreation of Regency London, as the next
generation of Darcy girls have to make their way in a society that
doesn't always appreciate their wit, determination and sense of
fun. This is the story of Cassandra, a young cousin to the children
of Mr and Mrs Darcy of 'Pride and Prejudice'. She's a worthy heir
to them in every way - she speaks her mind, is shrewd and talented
- but, sad to say, she makes one very major mistake as a result of
her impetuousness. Cast out of her respectable place in the world,
she has to make her own way. But in a London that regards any
attractive, independent young lady with deep suspicion, how can she
avoid coming upon the town? This is an unashamedly light and fun
read which will appeal to all fans of the perennially popular Jane
Austen. Its detail is accurate, its language accesible but
authentic - it's the perfect read for all of us who've seen the
films, bought the DVDs, reread the originals, but still want more.
