The Phantom of Pemberley: A Pride and Prejudice Murder Mystery ReviewThe story occurs 14 months after Darcy and Elizabeth's wedding. They live an idyllic life, along with Georgiana. After the holidays, Lydia travels to visit them (obviously Wickham is not invited). Uninvited is Lady Catherine, Anne, and her companion Mrs. Jenkinson. Anne has finally started asserting herself, much to Lady Catherine's bewilderment. She arrives at Pemberley in hopes of Darcy's help.
A massive winter storm is heading towards Derbyshire while Lydia travels to Lambton. When Darcy and Elizabeth arrive to pick her up, they find that Lydia has invited her two traveling companions to seek shelter at Pemberley. Darcy finds an acquaintance of his, Adam Lawerence, a future earl, (and his mistress) is also stranded in the past-capacity inn.
Pemberley's guests fit within a wide spectrum: various ages, genders, professions, values, etc. The interactions between characters are very interesting.
Strange happenings begin to occur throughout the house. The servants call it "the shadow people" because these occurrences are unexplainable. Eventually, murder befalls the house... several actually.
Since the magistrate cannot reach Pemberley through the storm, Darcy must conduct the investigation himself. Of course, Elizabeth provides him with some helpful insights.
At first I thought the mystery aspect to be very "cookie cutter"; however, that was not the case. The mystery is well planned and executed. Perhaps a reader may guess it, but if you keep yourself focused in the Regency-era mind-set, it truly is a surprise. Also, the author works you into the conclusion gradually, so it's more plausible.
I have read two other books by Regina Jeffers. Neither are my favorite 'Pride & Prejudice' adaptations, but all are very well written and planned. Each book has progressively gotten better. This one is my favorite. This one starts off slowly, but builds up to the first murder. After that, the pace quickens quite a bit.
As a warning: do NOT read the author's note in the back prior to completing the novel. I did by accident (my eye caught a particular word...) and it ruined the "mystery" for me.The Phantom of Pemberley: A Pride and Prejudice Murder Mystery Overview

Only Mr. Darcy Will Do ReviewI read this when it was titled 'Something Like Regret'. FYI, they are the same book. This one may be edited slightly differently, but the story is wonderful.(There are no graphic scenes.) The writing is mature and poetic, the circumstances and situations are (mostly) believable, as are the characters.
I really liked getting to know one of the society women who's in love with Darcy - it was an interesting perspective. Seeing details of Elizabeth's life as a governess also added to the story. I particularly loved the chess scene with Darcy's cousin - he was a fun additional character. There were a few places where it was a bit contrived, especially toward the end, but it was still extremely enjoyable and very difficult to put down.
To me, this is one of the BEST variations out there. This is one I won't be re-selling!
