Summary

Will a mysterious note from the past doom the love of Jane Austen’s most beloved couple? 

A Peculiar Connection begins near the close of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Bent on preventing the engagement of her nephew to Elizabeth Bennet, Lady Catherine de Bourgh declares that any union between Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth would be “a sin against Heaven itself!” Her shocking revelation, along with a cryptic message written over twenty years earlier, thrusts the couple into a whirlwind of heartbreak and disbelief. 

Could a deserted mansion in Derbyshire or a small church hidden in the wood hold the key to solving the puzzle? And why is Elizabeth inexplicably drawn to the portrait of three young boys in Pemberley’s gallery? 

Determined to confirm or refute Lady Catherine’s accusation, Darcy and Elizabeth are forced to embark upon a twisted trail into bygone days and family secrets. All the while, they must endure the exquisite torture of denying the indisputable desire that still hovers between them. 

From the award-winning author of An Arranged Marriage, The Journey, and The Secret Betrothal.

Interesting P&P variation

The writing is very good and the plot is interesting, it's not one of the best P&P variations but the characters are well developed.
Wit and vividness are missing. Good narration

A good story but not good narration

An excellent and unusual story but I really would recommend reading rather than listening, the accent is truly mobile travelling transatlantic back and forth with regular pauses in Ireland for good measure. Maybe this works for a non-British ear but for those who live on the same side of the Atlantic as Jane Austen did may find it a bit much. I am afraid I did.
