Can’t Wait Wednesday – PRIDE AND PREMEDITATION by Tirzah Price

 

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about.  It is a meme that I have  loved participating in for over a year now, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

My selection for this week is PRIDE AND PREMEDITATION by Tirzah Price.  This one caught my eye both because it’s a Pride and Prejudice retelling and because its cover is so stunning.  I also read on the author’s website that this is the first of three of Jane Austen’s novels receiving a murder mystery makeover, which just made me all the more excited.

From Goodreads:

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a young woman who desires a law career must be in want of a case. So when seventeen-year-old Lizzie Bennet hears about a scandalous society murder, she sees an opportunity to prove herself as a solicitor by solving the case and ensuring justice is served.

Except the man accused of the crime already has a lawyer on his side: Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, the stern young heir to the prestigious Pemberley Associates law firm. Lizzie is determined to solve the murder before Darcy can so that she can show the world that a woman can be just as good as a man. (The fact that Darcy is an infuriating snob doesn’t help.) But there’s still a killer on the loose, and as the case gets more complicated, Lizzie and Darcy may have to start working together to avoid becoming the next victims themselves. ple who made them . . . and what they will leave behind.

    Oh I love me a Pride and Prejudice reimagining! This sounds utterly brilliant, a little Sherlock thrown in and I’m adding this to my wishlist ASAP. That cover ain’t half bad either.
