Mr. Bennet's Death by Elaine Burkett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In this Pride and Prejudice variation, Darcy and the colonel are visiting Rosings when Darcy learns that Bennet has died. How will his behaviour and feelings towards Elizabeth change. Would have been more enjoyable to have more of the stories of the other Bennet ladies.
An entertaining variation.
