As Perrie is pushed towards the life of an adult by those around her, she can't help but be pulled into a game of wars within the walls of her very home.

This is my third novella in the Return to Sanditon collection - Edward's story. We pick the story up following the conclusion of Gunpowder and Rose (Crowe's story). Edward is currently in exile in France when his path crosses with a mysterious gentlemen who offers him a way home. He soon becomes embroiled in intrigue and has to work alongside his new associates to prevent a disaster from occurring on British soil. Renewing acquaintances, he soon realises that he is being given a second chance. We left Clara devastated by the heart wrenching decision to send her daughter away to live with Edward's sister. An unexpected wedding invitation brings about surprising but welcome consequences and soon she finds her path once more entwined with Edward's. Can they put past actions behind them and forge a new future? This novella is written in my own style and, although inspired by Sanditon 2019, it has taken the story further and introduced new characters (as with Crowe's). It is not written in the Austen style as the storylines are broader and the vocabulary less pure. 41k words and 26 chapters plus epilogue
