Fourteen-year-old Georgiana Darcy has been taken from school, and is about to be sent off to face the rigours of a life in London.
As the cast turn their faces to that city, one gentleman awaits them with all the charm and fascination that a handsome face and merciless ambition can beget.
The story follows young Georgiana to London, to Ramsgate and to the brink of a perilous elopement, bringing readers all the wit, the drama and the delights of their beloved Pride and Prejudice.
