Synopsis

Rosings Treasure, A Pride and Prejudice Variation by M. J. Potts Elizabeth Bennet comes to Kent expecting quiet walks, Charlotte's company, and six weeks away from the noise of Longbourn. She does not expect Mr Darcy on her favourite morning path. She certainly does not expect him to talk. But he does talk — about the valley below Rosings Park, about a ruined abbey with a story no one has finished, about monks who went to their deaths in 1538 rather than reveal where they had hidden their community's greatest treasures. The secret has been kept for nearly three hundred years. Then Elizabeth reaches sideways for a teacup on a hillside picnic and pulls a Roman gold coin from the grass — and the adventure begins in earnest. Rosings Treasure is a sweeping Pride and Prejudice variation full of history, mystery, and romance. Featuring a treasure hidden for centuries, and a queen who pays very close attention, and a cast of characters who all turn out to be considerably more than they first appeared. For readers who love Jane Austen, historical adventure, and a love story that earns every word.

Is Rosings Treasure: A Pride and Prejudice Variation appropriate for my child?

Suitable for most readers 13 and up.

A clean Austen variation with mild historical peril (monks who died rather than reveal secrets). No sex, no swearing, very chaste romance with slow-burn tension through treasure hunting.
