“A delightfully witty reimagining of Mansfield Park, with its country manor and simmering family tensions, as a classic whodunit.” —People
“Nobody, I believe, has ever found it possible to like the heroine of Mansfield Park.” —Lionel Trilling
In this ingenious new twist on Mansfield Park, the famously meek Fanny Price—whom Jane Austen’s own mother called “insipid”—has been utterly transformed; she is now a rich heiress who is spoiled, condescending, and generally hated throughout the county. Mary Crawford, on the other hand, is now as good as Fanny is bad, and suffers great indignities at the hands of her vindictive neighbor. It’s only after Fanny is murdered on the grounds of Mansfield Park that Mary comes into her own, teaming-up with a thief-taker from London to solve the crime.
Featuring genuine Austen characters—the same characters, and the same episodes, but each with a new twist—Murder at Mansfield Park is a brilliantly entertaining novel that offers Jane Austen fans an engaging new heroine and story to read again and again.
Also published as The Mansfield Park Murder.
“A clever reworking of the Austen novel that’s strong on plot, character, and historical accuracy . . . a delight.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“A page-turner with twists and turns that keep its reader gripped until the very last page . . . Shepherd does a superb job of keeping the reader guessing with the twists in the plot in the race to find the murderer, and producing an unexpected heroine along the way.” —Historical Novel Review
