A sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice set two years after the novel ends, MISS BENNET: CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY continues the story, only this time with bookish middle-sister Mary as its unlikely heroine.

When the family gathers for Christmas at Pemberley, an unexpected guest sparks Mary's hopes for independence, an intellectual match, and possibly even love.
