An unexpected inheritance thrusts Lizzy into a world of passion, intrigue, and the enigmatic Phantom at Netherfield Theater.When tragedy strikes the illustrious Darcy family, the Bennets inherit "Netherfield Theater," unaware of the dark secrets that dwell within its formerly opulent walls. Elizabeth Bennet just wants to run the theater but quickly becomes entangled in a web of mystery as strange accidents plague the production. Whispers of a legendary phantom swirl through the cast and crew. Driven to protect her beloved theater, Lizzy is determined to unravel its mysteries, even if it means confronting the enigmatic and scarred resident, who haunts its shadowy tunnels below. Fitzwilliam Darcy, wearing the mask of the phantom, hides not only his disfigured face but also the torments of his past. In the depths of darkness, he has lost everything, but Elizabeth's presence beckons him toward the light. As their hearts entwine, he falls hopelessly in love with her, even though he knows he can never offer her a future beyond the secrets of the theater's underground world. Amidst the drama of the stage, and their impetuous love affair, a different kind of drama unfolds in the shadows. George Wickham, a charming but treacherous patron, knows the truth about Darcy's scars, the fire at Pemberley, and the phantom's identity. Wickham's sinister agenda threatens not only the theater but also the budding attraction between Lizzy and Fitzwilliam. Clearly, this is wildly divergent from "Pride & Prejudice" canon, and though ODC takes a different path to their happy ending, the author took pains to ensure Lizzy and Darcy (and the other characters) remain recognizably themselves. If you're feeling a little daring, mount your horse astride instead of side-saddle, throw on a brightly colored gown to dance a scandalous waltz, and unlace your stays to step into a world where Elizabeth Bennet's fiery spirit finds new avenues to shine, and Mr. Darcy's allure takes on a darker, more mysterious edge. While Abbey sometimes writes sweet JAFF, this is strictly SENSUAL.
