"Lady Catherine de Bourgh has invited herself to Pemberley, intent upon bringing about an engagement between her daughter Anne and Colonel Fitzwilliam. But her ladyship has failed to take into account the remarkable improvement in her daughter's health and spirits since the arrival of her new tutor, the charismatic Mr. Asquith. Meanwhile, enchanted by the widowed Celia Sheffield, Colonel Fitzwilliam is perturbed to learn that her fortune is being contested by an individual in Jamaica - from whence Mr. Asquith also hails. And when the obsequious Mr. Collins shares grave rumours concerning the tutor's character, further suspicions are raised."--Publisher description.
