A Pride and Prejudice Variation. The Netherfield Ball became a crime scene. All Elizabeth Bennet wanted was fresh air and to think of what she had learned from Mr Darcy. But she was not alone in the gardens of Netherfield. Darcy searches for Elizabeth, only to find her on the ground, unconscious, with a bloody knife in her hand. Nearby was the body of her cousin, Mr Collins. Will the truth come out, or will Elizabeth be put on trial for murder? Who committed the murder, and will there be more deaths?

I am a retired crime lab/crime scene technician, having worked for a local police department for 15 years. Since then, I have become disabled. Forgot to get the extended warranty on the body. In my spare time, I make jewelry, am a photographer, and a full time mom and grandma. My daughter by birth is Catie, and she is the dearest part of my life. Through her, I have 2 daughters by heart, Heather and Kristina. Through Heather and her awesome man, Stan, I have 4 amazing grandchildren, Purgi, Penne, Myles, and Persephene. Besides my human family, I have a canine son, who is my service dog, Darcy. I also have 4 feline daughters (Salem, Lizzy, Dagonet, and Freya ). I now have 5 grandpuppies, 2 grandkitties. Two days after I received my first ever royalty check, I adopted Darcy and Lizzy. Fitting names, I thought. And they resemble the characters. Lizzy is mischievous, yet loving, climbing up high as if she were in a tree. Darcy is extremely protective and loving. He has his shy side, which is clear when around some people, until he comes to know he can trust them.
