Fitzwilliam Darcy, Master Spy

A Pride & Prejudice Variation (Dimensions of Darcy, Book 6)

De: Jennifer Joy

Narrado por: Stevie Zimmerman

"No mission is impossible for this Agent of the Crown... until he meets his match!

Fitzwilliam Darcy is the Crown's most formidable secret weapon—a Master Spy. His latest mission will test his limits when he's assigned to protect England's foremost code decipherer, Mr. Thomas Bennet… and his wife and five unmarried daughters.

Elizabeth Bennet does not suspect that her father's puzzles are for anything more than the improvement of their minds and her sisters' dowries. When she's thrust into Mr. Darcy's company, she is captivated by the mysterious gentleman. There is something dangerous about him… something she can't quite put her finger on but is determined to discover.

Surrounded by danger and secrets, Darcy's greatest challenge is to protect the woman he's falling for without embroiling her in his perilous world of espionage and deadly foes—a mission doomed for failure until he accepts that two are better than one and that Elizabeth is the key to overthrowing the machinations of a criminal mastermind.

Fitzwilliam Darcy, Master Spy is a sweet and clean Regency romance with comedy, suspense, and adventure. It is a variation of Jane Austen's timeless classic, Pride and Prejudice and the sixth book in the Dimensions of Darcy series of standalone novels.

Darcy as a spy!

Absolutely wonderful! First the narration. It’s hard to find the right words to describe Stevie Zimmerman’s talent without repeating myself, but she truly deserves more than my usual ‘outstanding.’ Stevie doesn’t just narrate—she performs and steps into each character’s shoes, making every voice distinct and authentic. No matter the story or specific scene, she always elevates. She’s the kind of voice actor you can rely on to make any book an unforgettable experience.

Book review:
Jennifer Joy is always very creative when establishing a premise for a new book. This time, our Mr. Darcy is a spy for the Crown in this well-plotted, but low-angst mystery. His latest assignment and that of Richard: protect Mr. Bennet and his family. Let’s just say Darcy isn’t fond of the idea of making the acquaintance of a matchmaking mama and her five daughters. Ironically, he meets them by accident at Hyde Park—thanks to a cat as ornery and proud as Darcy fans know he sometimes can be—and the following day calls on the family along with Richard and Bingley. Yes, the Bennets have a house in London, as well as their estate in Hertfordshire. Both locations are used in the book as they travel back and forth. Because it is a mystery, I won’t say much more, as to not spoil it for anyone, and focus on the characters.

This novel was so good and such fun to read. The relationships and interactions were all delightfully brought out in the well-written, and often humourous dialogue which features throughout the story, including that of the secondary characters. The three youngest Bennet daughters are not out and have a governess. Darcy and Richard’s brotherly banter was so diverting; I laughed out loud at them. A clever, but obstinate, headstrong Lizzy was very likeable, but sometimes her good intentions had Darcy gritting his teeth. I loved how the author had her love Darcy without all the usual misunderstandings—even though he almost blew it. He had to keep his ‘occupation’ secret after all. Alas, for her, he was just too irresistible to not forgive. Loved the Matlocks and Georgiana too, even though their roles are brief.

I highly recommend this light-hearted mystery—some intrigue without too much angst.

Kisses only.
