From the drawing rooms of Hertfordshire to the ancient sands of Egypt — some treasures are worth crossing the world to claim.
Elizabeth Bennet is certain the invitation her father received from a Cambridge professor is a jest. A treasure hunt. Across the Mediterranean. In pursuit of the Lost Library of Alexandria. Yet, she knows her father requires a practical companion to accompany him on this journey—and she has always yearned for a life beyond Hertfordshire’s gentle hills. This is her moment of discovery.
Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy rejects the same invitation until he learns Elizabeth will be there. Bound by a secret vow to protect her, Darcy casts aside his pride to follow her into the unknown. Accompanied by Colonel Fitzwilliam—who misses nothing, least of all his cousin’s fumbling attempts at courtship—they embark on a voyage where the stakes are life and death.
Set against the sweeping backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, this thrilling reimagining of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice carries them from the fountains of Rome to the Grand Bazaar of Constantinople and the silent majesty of the Egyptian pyramids. As their ship battles stormy seas and French warships, Elizabeth and Darcy must unravel centuries-old clues while navigating the tempestuous currents of their own hearts.
In a race against the treacherous George Wickham and a shadowy traitor known as The Shadow, they will discover that the greatest treasure of all is the love they were never meant to find.
This epic variation of Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice is a slow-burn Regency romance with a protective Mr. Darcy, an intelligent heroine, Colonel Fitzwilliam, forced proximity (on a ship), second first impression, high seas adventure that takes our travelers to Italy, Greece, Constantinople, and Alexandria while searching for the lost Library of Alexandria.
