FIRST IMPRESSIONS
A thrilling literary mystery costarring Jane Austen from the New York Times bestselling author of The Bookman's Tale
Charlie Lovett first delighted readers with his New York Times bestselling debut, The Bookman's Tale. Now, Lovett weaves another brilliantly imagined mystery, this time featuring one of English literature's most popular and beloved authors: Jane Austen.
Book lover and Austen enthusiast Sophie Collingwood has recently taken a job at an antiquarian bookshop in London when two different customers request a copy of the same obscure book: the second edition of Little Book of Allegories by Richard Mansfield. Their queries draw Sophie into a mystery that will cast doubt on the true
authorship of Pride and Prejudiceand ultimately threaten Sophie's life.
In a dual narrative that alternates between Sophie's quest to uncover the truthwhile choosing between two suitorsand a young Jane Austen's touching friendship with the aging cleric Richard Mansfield, Lovett weaves a romantic, suspenseful, and utterly compelling novel about love in all its forms and the joys of a life lived in books.
Charlie Lovett is a former antiquarian bookseller, an avid book collector, a playwright, and a member of The Grolier Club, the oldest and largest club for bibliophiles in North America.
