This novel is a story of the lives and loves on the Bennet sisters of Longbourn in the early 19th century and is based on the characters in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice as well as including characters from early books by the author.
For those familiar with Pride and Prejudice, in the Prologue, Darcy must leave Hertfordshire before the ball hosted by Bingley because of an emergency situation at Pemberley. It is also before Wickham arrives in Meryton to join the militia. The first chapter of the book begins over two years later and primarily deals with Elizabeth and Darcy. It assumes they never met at Rosings Park. All the Bennet sisters are introduced and their lives followed at various levels of detail. The last nine chapters of the book concentrate on Mary, Kitty, and Lydia.
