Jane Austen is preparing for the summer season.

As guests of their wealthy relatives Mr and Mrs Leigh-Perrot, Jane and her sister Cassandra will be holidaying in Bath Spa – the world-famous health resort, and more importantly, the epicentre of the marriage mart.

For many, the summer will be spent hunting husbands. But for Jane, when a series of murders breaks out across the city, she must chase down a killer instead.

With her beloved sister by her side, Jane is determined to bring the murderer to justice. Can she stop this villain from taking any more victims, before the summer ends? Or will her only dance of the season be with death…

What an absolute joy it is to join Miss Austen on a new investigation! Pride, Prejudice and Peril is full of family drama, society scandal and murder most foul, against the beautiful backdrop of Georgian Bath. Jessica Bull perfectly captures the deep sisterly bond between Jane and Cassandra and skilfully weaves together the Austen family history with a mystery worthy of Agatha Christie. A must-read for Jane Austen fans!
