One of literature's most infamous villains, Mr. Wickham, meets an abrupt and strange death in this mystery starring Jane Austen's most well-known literary characters, turning a summer house party into a whodunit.
Fans of Jane Austen will be delighted to see the happily married Mr. Knightley and Emma hosting a home party where they will meet new people and distant relatives. Mr. Wickham, whose newest financial scam has made him even more enemies, is definitely not welcome. As resentment grows and identities are exposed, it becomes evident that everyone would be content if Mr. Wickham faced justice. Even so, they are all taken aback when Wickham is found dead—aside, of course, from the murderer who is concealed among them.
The two youngest partygoers, Jonathan Darcy, the eldest son of the Darcys, whose adherence to propriety makes his father seem almost relaxed, and Juliet Tilney, the bright and resourceful daughter of Catherine and Henry, who is eager for adventure beyond Northanger Abbey, must unravel the mystery as nearly everyone at the house party is a suspect. Before an innocent person is hanged, the unusual duo must set aside their own negative initial impressions and find the guilty perpetrator.
