The A Jane Austen Society Mystery series pairs the genteel world of Austen appreciation with the fun of a whodunit. Set among members of a Jane Austen society, the books take their titles directly from Austen’s novels (Pride, Prejudice and Poison; Death and Sensibility), which signals the tone from the outset: this is cozy mystery with genuine affection for its literary source material.
The series opens with Pride, Prejudice and Poison (2019), in which a murder disrupts the normally pleasant world of Austen enthusiasts, and continues with Death and Sensibility (2021). Both books work as standalones, though reading in order lets you follow the recurring cast and their evolving relationships. Fans of bookshop mysteries, village mysteries, and anything in the cozy tradition will find these easy to enjoy.
