Book of Interest: Pride and Premeditation

I love Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, it's one of my favorite stories and mysteries are one of my favorite genres. As soon as I read the description for Pride and Premeditation by Tirzah Price, how could I not want to read it. As independent and headstrong as Elizabeth Bennet is, I can see her interested in becoming a lawyer. I'm always interested in a retelling especially if it offers something different while still honoring the original story which from the description seems to do.


Book: Pride and Premeditation (Jane Austen Murder Mysteries book #1) by Tirzah Price

Description:

Perfect for fans of the Lady Janies and Stalking Jack the Ripper, the first book in the Jane Austen Murder Mysteries series is a clever retelling of Pride and Prejudice that reimagines the iconic settings, characters, and romances in a thrilling and high-stakes whodunit.

When a scandalous murder shocks London high society, seventeen-year-old aspiring lawyer Lizzie Bennet seizes the opportunity to prove herself, despite the interference of Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, the stern young heir to the prestigious firm Pemberley Associates.

Convinced the authorities have imprisoned the wrong person, Lizzie vows to solve the murder on her own. But as the case—and her feelings for Darcy—become more complicated, Lizzie discovers that her dream job could make her happy, but it might also get her killed.
