Darcy's Longest Day by M.A. Sandiford ★★★★★

Darcy's Longest Day: A Pride and Prejudice VariationSet a month after his disasterous Hunsford proposal, Darcy travels to Meryton, hoping to see Elizabeth Bennet.

Although he has lost all hope of gaining her heart, he wants to give her a letter, in which he seeks to correct her bad opinion of him and ensure that she sees Mr Wickham as the snake he is.
 
On the way his carriage is stopped by damsel in distress. Rescuing her sets off a chain of events, which places Elizabeth in danger.

Darcy and Elizabeth become embroiled in the machinations of French sympathisers, leading to kidnapping, espionage and murder.

A fast paced story with a satisfying denouement. I couldn’t put it down!
