In this Pride and Prejudice variation on the day that Mr. Collins proposes to Elizabeth her father informs her of his ill health. Elizabeth now feels she cannot reject him.
On hearing of the betrothal, Darcy decides he must take action to stop the marriage. But does he makes the situation worse?
Delightful book, the only thing and it is minor that I didn't like was the use of the word homicide instead of murder by Elizabeth.
