Jane and the Unpleasantness
at Scargrave Manor

by Stephanie Barron

This is the first in a series of Jane Austen mysteries. The style of writing and period details wonderfully reflect the era in which Austen lived (late 18th/early 19th century Regency England). Woven through are well researched bits concerning the manners, status and limitations on the lives of the period’s “young ladies of more fashion than means. ” The author further provides introductory information about Austen and interjects an occasional informative footnotes throughout the text.
