About this listen
A secret letter brings them together. Will an assassin tear them apart?
For Miss Elizabeth Bennet, love is the cipher she cannot crack.
Outside the Longbourn house, Elizabeth Bennet is an ordinary country miss. But in secret, she and her father crack codes to foil Napoleon's schemes against England. More than anything, Elizabeth wants to be loved for herself, but how can she when she lives a double life?
For Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, a coded letter hides the key to his heart.
After Fitzwilliam Darcy's brother is killed in France, a coded letter carries his final words and a dangerous secret. Mr. Darcy brings the letter to the Bennets for answers. But soon the code is the least of Mr. Darcy's conundrums as he finds himself falling for Elizabeth Bennet. Caught between an assassin and an old enemy, can Mr. Darcy accept his feelings and win Miss Elizabeth's heart before it is too late?
Find out in Mr. Darcy's Cipher, Book 1 of the Spies and Prejudice series. Mr. Darcy's Cipher is a Pride and Prejudice variation novel of 65,000 words with heaps of romance, humor, suspense, code-cracking, and two sometimes bullheaded but lovable leads who struggle to save a nation while falling in love.

Fitzwilliam Darcy is enraged when, already reeling from Elizabeth Bennet’s disdain, he discovers his sister locked in a passionate embrace with George Wickham—and suffers an apoplexy at the sight. With proper speech locked uselessly inside his mind, his Fitzwilliam relations are quick to take advantage of the situation, calling his illness insanity, and scheming to keep both Darcys under their control.

Story
Fitzwilliam Darcy takes his responsibilities seriously. He excels in every endeavor he pursues and upholds the highest standards, and he has little patience for those who flaunt their flaws like the Bennets do. Elizabeth Bennet longs for the toe-curling romance she reads about in novels. She dreams of an honorable man - loyal and generous to the less fortunate...everything Mr. Darcy is not.

Story
I came to the countryside for peace. Instead, I’ve found myself stuck in a village where everyone knows my business, everyone wants to talk to me, and every single event seems to be held in a room that is far too small for the number of people crammed into it. Worse still, I can’t seem to escape Elizabeth Bennet—a woman who somehow manages to unsettle me with just a look. And now, on top of everything, I’ve apparently acquired a sarcastic Scottish ghost who’s determined to meddle in my affairs. Merry Christmas to me.

For twenty years Elizabeth Bennet had lived, quite contentedly, as the second daughter of a country squire. During her Easter visit to her newly married friend, Lizzy has the dubious pleasure of being introduced to Lady Catherine de Bourgh and her cosseted daughter. To Elizabeth’s surprise, the pair take a keen interest in a mere adopted daughter of the Bennet family, and when Mr. Darcy dutifully pays his annual visit to Rosings Park, her life takes a wholly unexpected turn.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." These were the words that defined Fitzwilliam Darcy's young life. Any measure of integrity, honor, loyalty—these were secondary considerations to the size of a bachelor's estate. The only lady to esteem his genuine character was now lost forever, and he must face his future alone.

I much prefer the sharpest criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses. ELIZABETH BENNET is determined that she will put a stop to her mother’s plans to marry off the eldest Bennet daughter to Mr. Collins, the Longbourn heir, but a man that Mr. Bennet considers an annoying dimwit. Hence, Elizabeth disguises herself as Jane and repeats her vows to the supercilious rector as if she is her sister, thereby voiding the nuptials and saving Jane from a life of drudgery. Yet, even the “best laid plans” can often go awry. FITZWILLIAM DARCY is desperate to ...

One warning, two cautions, and a note: WARNING: In deference to a truth universally acknowledged that men do not behave the same when no women are present as they do in mixed company, this vagary does have occasional uses of profanity. The men in my life would consider it amusing but naïve to afford the same semantics of conversation for wholly different circumstances such as these, or they would should one of them choose to read it. This vagary proposes an alternate telling of the original Pride and Prejudice and considers what may have happened should the characters have been afforded a ...

Story
In this low angst, a sweet retelling of Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Bennet is not just idle, he is actively cruel. And Mrs. Bennet, while still uneducated, must do whatever she can to protect her daughters from their father. Mr. Darcy’s epiphany comes much earlier than in canon and it changes his relationships not only with the Bennets but with his sister, his cousin Anne, and Bingley. When the Bennet matriarch moves to an estate outside of Bath with her daughters, Bingley follows and so do both Darcy siblings.

Sorry I didn’t have the book in my Kindle app…
This is a story that really needs the “whisper soft” extra to help the listener follow what is going on during the extensive “code-breaking” parts of the plot. The Virtual Voice was no help either. This story really begged for a human’s touch. All that said, it was a unique take away from strict cannon with many of our familiar favorites and the added touch of another Darcy character. I personally was able to block out the voice and wished the wrap-up wasn’t so abrupt. Some things were left unfinished or undeveloped. The author crammed a five pound story into a four pound sack. I was really sad for once that my e-book version was on the wrong reading app.

Deserves a real narrator!
As a lover of PPVs, this was a compelling version of the beloved characters' romantic adventures, but the voice sync did it no favors. Support for the autolhor and a damn shame it didn't get the professional treatment it deserved.

Virtual voice is okay. It would have been great with a real person or even male and female voice.
But I love the interesting story!!!!

Code -breaker Lizzy
Lizzy helps foil a spy plot. Lydia is gullible. ODC are both prickly at first, but then they impress each other. Low angst. Fast pace. Good writing. it just needs a real narrator.

Very good story. I liked the espionage angle and Darcy’s “apology “ just cracked me up. Clueless man! And virtual voice was decent.

Great Story - Deserves a Real Voice Actor
This was my first virtual voice experience. It was okay, but this interesting novel deserves better. There was almost no differentiation between the voices and it lost a lot of texture because of this AI voice.

Just NO on AI-Virtual Voice!!!!!!
This book is my 1st foray into Virtual Voice. It IS wonderful to know we have advanced in technology so well that in this case, the British Voice was good. However, AI really CANNOT add the emotion, inflection, to "voice" hence, causing a poor performance of narration. This last statement seriously brought the whole performance, for me, to become bored with the story. I did not read the ebook or paper of this book & the story has "some" substance. However, due to the narration it all fell flat.

Very shallow
I am really getting tired of the P&P variations that portray Elizabeth as an angry rude witch and Darcy as being stupid enough to adore her. This is one of those books
