The Intrigue at Highbury: Or, Emma's Match

Mr. and Mrs. Darcy are looking forward to aÂ relaxing stay withÂ dear friends when their carriage is hailed by a damsel-in-distress outside of the village of Highbury. Little do the Darcys realize that gypsies roam these woods, or that both their possessions and the woman are about to vanish into the night.
Â
The DarcysÂ seek outÂ theÂ parish magistrate, who is having a difficult evening of his own. Mr.Â Knightley and his new wife, the former Miss Emma Woodhouse (the heroine of Jane Austen's Emma) are hosting a party to celebrate the marriage of their friends, Mr. Frank Churchill and Miss Jane Fairfax. During dinner, Mr. Edgar Churchill,Â uncle andÂ adoptive fatherÂ of the groom, falls suddenly ill and dies. The cause of death: poison.
Â
When theÂ Darcys and the KnightleysÂ join forces to investigate the crimes, they discover that the robbery and Edgar Churchill's death may be connected.Â Together they must work to quicklyÂ locate the source of the poison and the murderer's motive--before the killer can strike again.Â
