A brilliant festival, I recommend it. Made even more brilliant when Jen @travelsalong.bsky.social arrived. She's been there for me as a reader and champion from the very start. I'm often asked why I do so many events and bookshop visits. Lots of reasons of course but this is an important one!

In the 250th anniversary year since Jane Austen’s birth, I knew I had to get my hands on A Fortune Most Fatal by Jessica Bull that sees Jane as an amateur sleuth. I adored the first book and have been waiting for this one - I wasn’t disappointed!“Who are you, Miss Austen, but a young lady of little experience and no consequence?”Welcome to Kent, 1797. Following many years apart, Jane Austen is set to spend the summer with her estranged brother, Neddy. As heir to wealthy widow Mrs Knight’s fortune, it is imperative that Neddy stays in his benefactor’s good graces. The financial security of Jane’s entire family depend on him. But upon arrival at Godmersham Park, Jane quickly realises Neddy is in dire need of her help. For a mysterious young woman currently resides with Mrs Knight – a stranger who threatens to swindle the inheritance for herself.Jane must uncover who this imposter is, to protect the fortunes – and fate – of her family. But when her investigation takes a dark and dangerous turn, can she solve the mystery – and save herself?This book is just exceptional, so packed full of details, Jessica really knows Jane Austen and this time we go to Godmersham Park, home to her brother Neddy. Neddy was adopted when Jane was three years old and she now travels to care for his wife Elizabeth as she prepares to give birth at their house in Kent. Neddy is heir to the Knight fortune worth eight thousand a year.Jane is writing The Sisters, which will become Sense and Sensibility and she is determined to both write and puzzle out just what is going on with Mrs Knight and her new guest.I really loved this story, Jane is not a very good sleuth really, as we discovered in the first book, but she has a very kind heart and simply wants to uncover the truth. There are plenty of twists and turns and lots of little nods to Austen’s work. This is written with love, wit and is a joy to read. I adore this version of Jane Austen and look forward to her next adventure![adpr]Thanks to @michaeljbooks for my chance to review on @netgalley I’m looking forward to receiving my forever hard copy I’ve ordered next week#afortunemostfatal #janeausteninvestigates
