About this listen
What if Elizabeth told Mr. Darcy about Jane's feelings for Mr. Bingley before he proposed to her at Hunsford?
Thus begins The Truth About Jane...
When Elizabeth visits Hunsford to see her friend Mrs. Collins, she is forced to endure Mr. Darcy's presence once more. On one of their walks, she reveals to him how heartbroken Jane has been since Mr. Bingley's abandonment—which was news to Darcy. Acting quickly, Darcy sends a letter to Bingley in London, informing him of Jane's presence there and urging him to renew his acquaintance.
See what happens when the Jane and Bingley business is resolved before Darcy's proposal, and watch their romantic courtship unfold in Hailey Jones's Pride and Prejudice variation novella The Truth About Jane.

Story
So much in life depends on chance and sheer luck. How much do we often owe to being in the right place at the right time? In Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Bennet plans to visit the Lake District with her uncle and aunt, yet ends up at Pemberley instead, just as, by coincidence, Mr Darcy also arrives home. They meet, understand one another better and all eventually ends well. But what if they did not have such luck? What if Elizabeth actually went to the Lake District and was nowhere near Pemberley, and she and Mr Darcy never met again until another four years had gone by? Now...

Story
What truly occurred at Ramsgate in the summer of 1811 when Miss Darcy journeyed there with her companion, Mrs Younge? Was it mere chance that Mr Bingley chose to lease an estate so near to Longbourn? And was there more significance to the fact that Mrs Gardiner’s family came from Lambton, a town close to Pemberley and the Earl of Matlock’s estate? The Secret of Pemberley delves into these questions and more, weaving together events, imbuing seemingly insignificant details with importance, and introducing a new character—Mrs Wilson, the mother of Mrs Gardiner.

Would she dress like her older sister and be expected to flirt with prospective suitors? How would John Lucas and her other pals react to her if she acted as a young woman instead of as one of the boys? As her mother droned on, she conjured a picture in her mind. Her mother was there ...

Mr Jonathan Phillips was certainly not in the best of moods. Yesterday had been an unusually hard day for him, and he could barely think how he was going to cope with all that it entailed. He looked over the manuscript he held in his hand then said blandly, “‘A respectable gentleman travelling on business was shot yesterday outside the town of Meryton, near the ancient Roman ruins.’ Is that what you consider a relevant beginning for a newspaper article? My dear fellow, do you really think that such news will make you a correspondent for The Times? You could not even dare to hope that ...

He was bringing a supply of meat and vegetables and reported on what he had heard when he took supplies to the Red Lion.” “So, no one has actually seen him?” Elizabeth asked, incredulous. “All I know is that the man from China is tall, looks to be a proper English gentleman and is ...

Tragedy strikes the Gardiner family and Elizabeth sacrifices her own prospects to help the family heal. She performs a heroic act while in London and then has to deal with the consequences for her and her family. Upon her return to Longhorn she attends the Assembly where Mr. Darcy very much does not act the gentleman. This is the story of a young woman overcoming all that is thrown at her, metaphorically. Caroline Bingley did not literally throw something at Elizabeth, however much she was tempted. This is variation on the classic story, with accurate historical details.
