Many years have passed since the dramatic events of Pride and Prejudice. In The Cousins of Pemberley series we follow a new generation of heroines - cousins with lives as different and interesting as those enjoyed by their mothers. Mary Bennet - overlooked laughed at despised - married a missionary and vanished into a life of service out in Africa. But now Miriam her daughter is coming to England disliking everything she has been told about her family. Her aunts and cousins are expecting someone quiet dull and bookish just like her mother not the quick-tempered impulsive girl who arrives. How can this adventurous girl with her desire for freedom possibly fit into their well ordered world? And what havoc will she cause as she tries?
