Pemberley's Curse

A Pride and Prejudice Reimagining

De: Victoria Haute

Some houses are haunted by ghosts. Pemberley is haunted by its master.

When Elizabeth Bennet arrives at the great estate to care for the ailing Miss Darcy, she finds more than shadows behind closed doors. Whispers echo through the west wing. Mirrors reflect memories that are not her own. And Fitzwilliam Darcy—her former suitor—roams the halls with a gaze hollowed by secrets.

What tragedy silenced Pemberley's music? Why does the scent of foxglove cling to Lady Anne’s locked rooms? And why does Darcy speak as if his heart no longer belongs to him?

Drawn into a web of suspicion, desire, and dreams that feel too real, Elizabeth must decide whether the man she once refused is her enemy... or the only soul who can save her from the curse.

A gothic reimagining of Pride and Prejudice for fans of Rebecca, Jane Eyre, and Mexican Gothic, Pemberley’s Curse is a darkly romantic novella full of buried secrets, haunted hearts, and love that defies even death.

An atmospheric retelling

Not a straightforward retelling, but still fun and gothic. It doesn't tell the story from the beginning of the original, but starts it after some events have already happened and the continues in a kind of what if fashion.
It wasn't perfect, but I very much enjoted it.
