** "Lovingly-crafted and brilliantly executed Dear Jane (and the entire Highbury Trilogy) is an outstanding companion and tribute to Jane Austen's Emma. Rich with comprehensive detail, thoughtful developments and emotive prose." Austenesque Reviews.**
The final instalment of the Highbury trilogy, Dear Jane recounts events hinted at but never actually described in Jane Austen's Emma; the formative childhood years of Jane Fairfax and Frank Churchill, their meeting in Weymouth and the agony of their secret engagement.
Orphaned Jane seems likely to be brought up in parochial Highbury until adoption by her papa's old friend Colonel Campbell opens to her all the excitement and opportunities of London. Frank Weston is also transplanted from Highbury, adopted as heir to the wealthy Churchills and taken to their drear and inhospitable Yorkshire estate. Readers of Emma will be familiar with the conclusion of Jane and Frank's story, but Dear Jane pulls back the veil which Jane Austen drew over its remainder.
Genre: Historical Romance
