What if Elizabeth Bennet’s greatest mystery was not whom she would marry—but who she truly was?

Elizabeth Bennet has always known that her childhood was different from that of her four cousins. The beloved daughter of a British naval officer and a mysterious German woman with no memory of her past, Elizabeth was orphaned young and raised at Longbourn by her uncle, Thomas Bennet.

But when her uncle dies and Mrs. Bennet attempts to force sixteen-year-old Elizabeth into marriage with Mr. Collins, an unexpected protector intervenes.
The Earl of Matlock, whose life Elizabeth saved two years earlier, offers her a place within his own family.

Under the affectionate care of the Earl and Countess, Elizabeth flourishes. With two fiercely protective honorary brothers, a growing friendship with Georgiana Darcy, and the increasingly captivating attentions of Fitzwilliam Darcy himself, she finally discovers the happiness and security she has always longed for.

Yet Elizabeth possesses one treasure that even her new family cannot explain: an antique gold locket inherited from her mother.
When an unexpected encounter reveals that the locket may belong to a distinguished German aristocratic family, Elizabeth finds herself drawn into a past filled with lost relatives, forgotten tragedies, and secrets buried for more than twenty years.

Some members of her newly discovered family welcome her with open arms.
Others have very good reasons to fear what she might know.
As old secrets stir and danger threatens everything Elizabeth holds dear, Darcy and the family who chose her must stand beside her while she discovers the truth about the mother she lost.

For sometimes the greatest inheritance is not a title or fortune, but the discovery of where one truly belongs.

The Lost Daughter of Falkenried is a sweeping, romantic Pride and Prejudice variation featuring a devoted Darcy, a spirited Elizabeth, protective Fitzwilliam cousins, a mysterious aristocratic inheritance, and the enduring power of family. With mystery, humor, tender romance, and a satisfying Darcy–Elizabeth happily ever after, this is a story of finding love, uncovering the past, and discovering that family is defined by far more than blood.
