For everyone who loves Jane Austen...the second tantalizing mystery in a new series that transforms the beloved author into a dazzling sleuth!

Jane and her family are looking forward to a peaceful holiday in the seaside village of Lyme Regis. Yet on the outskirts of town an overturned carriage forces the shaken travelers to take refuge at a nearby manor house. And it is there that Jane meets the darkly forbidding yet strangely attractive Mr. Geoffrey Sidmouth. What murky secrets does the brooding Mr. Sidmouth seek to hide?

Jane suspects the worst - but her attention is swiftly diverted when a man is discovered hanged from a makeshift gibbet by the sea. The worthies of Lyme are certain his death is the work of “the Reverend”, the ringleader of the midnight smuggling trade whose identity is the town's paramount mystery. Now, it falls to Jane to entrap and expose the notorious Reverend...even if the evidence points to the last person on earth she wants to suspect...a man who already may have won her heart.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Eat your heart out, Charlotte Bronte!... Jane's narrative voice stays coolly crisp and witty, never losing its clarity of style and authenticity of tone, even in nerve-racking moments of excitement...captivating...delightful.... Ms. Barron's skillful rendering of Austen's style, attuned to picking up the most delicate fluctuations in social behavior, reveals it to be an ideal vehicle for the classic cozy murder mystery. Who knew?” (The New York Times Book Review)

“The words, characters, and references are so real it is a shock to find that the author is not Austen herself.” (Arizona Republic)

“Delightful...captures the style and wit of Austen.... A real charmer.” (San Francisco Examiner)

Wonderful murder mystery with Jane Austen as our witty sleuth. But this time around we have a bit of romance as well.

Danger and Romance and Jane Austen!

This novel keeps the reader guessing who the Reverend is for over five hours. I highly recommend.

This is my 4th "Being Jane Austen Mystery" as I started out of order with later titles. First, I really liked the overall story. It's a well done mystery with developed characters. I only give it 4 stars because it was sooo slow for the first half and there were so many editors notes/footnotes that I almost stopped listening. The later books are true stories so I was surprised at how many footnotes there were in this one - to the point that it really took away from the story and made parts of it feel like a historical documentary of some kind. (I also felt that at least half of the footnotes were things that anyone remotely familiar with Regency era stories would already know.) I think if I were reading the story and could look over the footnotes at leisure I'd appreciate them but there were too many interruptions that took me out of the story. It is a great mystery that is worth reading/listening to - and I love several of the other books so the series is wonderful - just be warned about the numerous interruptions in this particular book.

Slow to start but great story

I read Stephanie Barton’s novels years ago and am enjoying listening to them! Ms Barron absolutely captures the spirit of Jane Austen. Well done!!

Love this series!!

I’m enjoying listening to this series by Stephanie Barron and narrated by Kate Reading as much as I was delighted in initially discovering and reading the series! I feel as if I’m Cassandra, knitting away listening to Jane’s correspondence or conversation over tea. A vicarious participant in Jane’s adventures. :)

The characters are the best part of this book, although the formula for the plot is becoming predictable.

A little predictable but fun characters

Historically inaccurate to say that Jane Austen’s father, a clergyman in the early 1800s, would have questioned the Biblical account of creation. Jane also went several places unaccompanied which she wouldn’t have done in that era.

Overall good

I really love this story. I don't really like the actual Jane Austen novels, so the fact that I kept smiling at how clever this story is written is something of a surprise. This Jane is, of course, really a budding feminist, but there is enough 19th century sensibility that it does not seem completely out of place.

When a certain Gentleman Rogue showed up at the end, I thought the author had copped out and brought in a man to save the day, but, never fear, Jane remains the main character.

Anyway, it's a good story and the history lessons in the footnotes is a bonus.

Another fine Jane story
