When news traveled that a wealthy bachelor, Mr. Bingley, had leased Netherfield with his sisters, the town was abuzz with excitement. The mothers anyway. Each seeing one of their daughters marrying into a respectable life. Of course, Mrs. Bennet was no exception. Sending her two oldest daughters, Jane and Elizabeth, to a grand dance to meet him and his friends. Unfortunately for Elizabeth, his good friend Mr. Darcy is anything but the type of man she would ever be interested in.
Excitement quickly turns to troubled minds as Mr. Bingley shares the bad news coming from America. News of a horrible disease that is rendering its victims into cannibals. What if it comes across the ocean?
The courting continues until the horrible news spreads throughout the country. It has come to England. On a visit to see her new love interest Mr. Bingley, Jane comes down with a sickness they all fear will turn her into one of these dreadful creatures.
Refusing to let her sister die alone without family, Elizabeth refuses to stay home in safety. Making her way to Netherfield as the whole country goes mad. A nightmare as neighbors and family members are infected. Turned into those horrible creatures that feed upon….
Trapped at Netherfield with The Bingley’s and Mr. Darcy, Elizabeth quickly finds that people are not always what they seem. And as the hero in Mr. Darcy comes out, the attraction she feels is almost as horrifying to her as the sickness claiming everything she knows.
Often, we find our true measure as a person only when confronted with great loss. This is such a story, as a man who was mistaken as a snobby, elite landowner with little thought for other than himself shows that heroes spring forth from the least expected of places. A hero whose capacity for love, to be loved, is so strong Elizabeth would endure anything to be by his side.
Anything.
