Fault or Virtue: An Imaginative Retelling of Jane Austen’s ‘Pride and Prejudice’ (English Edition)

Fault or Virtue explores what would have happened if Elizabeth had immediately confronted Darcy about his conduct at the Meryton Assembly. With their opinions out in the open, Darcy and Elizabeth are allowed to form a somewhat friendly acquaintance during his time in Hertfordshire, ending when Mr. Wickham suggests that Darcy intends to make Elizabeth his mistress since duty to his family and station would not allow him to marry her. Though Elizabeth attempts to separate herself from Darcy, she is forced to accompany her sister Jane to London in order to reunite with Mr. Bingley and is again thrust into Darcy’s company causing more misunderstandings to arise.
