Why read it?

1 author picked The Late Mrs. Willoughby as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The Late Mrs. Willoughby is the second in Claudia Gray’s series featuring Jane Austen’s characters solving mysteries. (The first was The Murder of Mr. Wickham.)

The two chief detectives are Jonathan Darcy, son, of course, of Elizabeth and Darcy; and Juliet Tilney, daughter of Catherine and Henry, and the dynamic between the two is lively and often hilarious. You don’t have to be a Jane Austen fan to enjoy these books, but if you do love Austen’s characters, this is a new way to appreciate them!
