5.0

Can’t find anything bad to say about this book. P.D. James has been so careful to keep to Austen’s writing style and the world of Pemberley is revived through his writing with an accuracy that you wouldn’t know it wasn’t Austen if you hadn’t look at the cover. The mystery adds a nice depth to the world of Pemberley, making it more real to the reader than is experienced without reading this book. Definitely recommend for lovers of Austen, avid crime readers and it is a paradise for those who are both!
