George Wickham is pure evil. Arriving at Meryton, after learning his nemesis, Fitzwilliam Darcy and Colonel Richard Fitzwilliam learn of the newest crimes of the man they had known since their childhood. He had raped and murdered the youngest Bennet daughter and left her second eldest sister for dead after she struck her head on a rock during the fight with him. Elizabeth becomes catatonic, unable to speak with anyone. When there is no other way to see to his beloved daughter's medical needs, Mr Bennet sends his 2 eldest daughters with Darcy and Fitzwilliam to London for Elizabeth to receive medical care. This leads to more heartache as the Bennet family makes their way through the aftermath, and the cousins search desperately to find Wickham, before he is able to cause any further harm. Can they stop him before he is able to silence the one lady who can place a noose around his neck? ** WARNING, THIS STORY INCLUDES THE RAPE OF 2 CHARACTERS, THOUGH NOT OF OUR MAIN CHARACTERS. THERE ARE SEVERAL DEATHS. THERE IS NO DISCRIPTION OF THE RAPES, ONLY KNOWING THAT IT HAPPENED AND ONE OF THE VICTIMS WAS MURDERED**

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.
