The Matters at Mansfield – Book Review

by Carrie Bebris
ISBN-13: 978-0-7653-1847-3
There are some people you should never invite to a party. Jessica Fletcher (Murder She Wrote) and Mr and Mrs Darcy because scandel follows them and someone always turns up dead. At least Miss Marple had the decency to look for her corpes in the newspaper.
Mr and Mrs Darcy are attending a ball the at the Fitzwilliams with Lady Catherine, Anne de Burgh and Colonel Fitzwilliam. Lady Catherine is determined to find a suitably rich and titled match for her daughter Anne. Anne, however has a different idea and has everyone scrambling when she elopes. The drama unfolds at Mansfield Park and we get a glimpse of characters from Jane Austen’s classic. Unfortunately we get only a glimpse and I was sad we didn’t see more of them.
It’s a great series and this book just as good as the others.

My name is Michelle and I've been an avid reader since I was a kid. With my head stuck in a 'Famous Five' book, I was never hindered by bed time thanks to my trusty torch. I live in Australia with my beautiful family. My tastes cover many genres but I do have a passion for Jane Austen and Austen inspired works. My site is full of these works and I hope my collection is of use to fellow lovers of Austen.
