Have just finished reading the above sequel and I must say that I am still confused as to which century it is supposed to be in. Some of the things it mentions would have happened in the early 1900's the Edwardian times others would have happened in the regency times.
I cannot see Mr Darcy allowing his sisters Georgiana and Kitty not to be chaperoned when she went anywhere. I couldn't see Mr Darcy allowing them to go to a dog show either. I also couldn't see Georgiana going swimming in a pond with Kitty only in her undergarments. Another thing I couldn't see either was Mrs Reynolds telling Georgiana that her brother and his new wife were in bed trying for a baby all day and would see her at dinner time if they decide to get up. I could not see Lady Catherine allowing her daughter Anne to marry the son of a Blacksmith even though he trained to be an accountant.

She has both Kitty and Georgiana kidnapped by Gypsies but then returned because Mr Darcy gets the best detective on the job a Mr Strand who falls in love with Mrs Reynolds and trys to persuade her to leave the Darcy's and marry him but she isn't interested in him and diverts his attentions to Tily one of the maids. The Doctor who Georgiana falls in love with after being bitten badly at a dog show is very off hand with her and does not like her cause she is a poor little rich girl but also falls in love with her sending her flowers which she burns confusing isn't it. Kitty falls in love with a Prince and eventually marries him.

Towards the end of the book the go to Savannah to see Mr Darcy's partner over there and his plantation. While travelling Lizzy finds out she is pregnant and ends up spending the whole journey in bed again with Darcy of course.

All in all I found it to be a crazy mixed up read, which was very confusing in places.
