‘Who are you, Miss Austen, but a young lady of little experience and no consequence?’
Welcome to Godmersham Park, 1797.
Following many years apart, Jane Austen is set to spend the summer with her estranged brother, Neddy.
As heir to wealthy widow Mrs Knight’s fortune, it is imperative that Neddy stays in his benefactor’s good graces.
But upon arrival in Kent, Jane quickly realises Neddy is in dire need of her help.
For a mysterious young woman named Eleanor currently resides with Mrs Knight – a stranger who threatens to swindle the inheritance for herself.
Jane must uncover who Mrs Knight’s guest really is, to protect the fate of her entire family. When she discovers a series of threatening letters meant for Eleanor, her investigation takes an unexpected turn.
Because the dangers aren’t just within the walls of Godmersham Park. Jane knows someone else is out there watching, waiting – but for what?
Is this curious Eleanor friend, or foe? And can Jane solve the mystery, before danger comes for them all?
