Prawn and Prejudice

-(previously ‘Prawn & Prejudice’)

Published by Sourcebooks Landmark

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a yacht must be in want of a female crew...”

The balmy seaside resort town of Salcombe boasts the best in bikinis, sandcastle contests, and a fiercely competitive squad of buff local lifeguards as Regatta Week approaches. And if that weren't enough excitement, Mrs Bennet hears that the splendid villa Netherpollock has been rented by a young man of great fortune. She is determined he'll go out with one of her daughters, until Mr Darcy glides in on his stunning yacht Pemberley and she decides he would be the better catch...

Jane Austen has never been so hilariously recreated as in this modern seaside retelling of Pride and Prejudice, complete with a Mr Darcy you won't soon forget!

WHAT THE READERS SAY
"A wonderful read-inspiring, intelligent, and quite hilarious."
"Hugely entertaining. It made me laugh out loud many times."
"I am mad on Austen and loved this book! I am sure Jane would be very happy to know her creations are alive and kicking on the English seaside!"

REVIEWS

‘Daisy Drama Club Raises the Curtain’ is based on the true story of my daughter Sophie and her best friend Cressie, who set up a drama club ... the Daisy Drama Club! We had so much fun putting on plays in our village and even going on tour - so there is plenty of excitement to fill a number of DDC books!

‘Best friends Sophie and Cressie set up their own theatre group, the Daisy Drama Club, in the village of Wissop. The first production, to be performed in their very own 'Barn Theatre' is to be 'A Christmas Carol', full of spirits and ghosts ... but rehearsals fall into chaos when real ghosts spook the cast. And who has stolen Farmer Bagwash's ladder? And will poor Cressie have to leave the village? If so, how will the Daisy Drama Club survive?

‘A funny, delightful adventure, perfect for young readers who love drama.’’
