CONVICTION, a satirical, original sequel to Jane Austen's timeless classic PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, reveals the romantic destiny of Georgiana Darcy. The author, however, does not rest on the laurels of Austen; she introduces an entirely new cast of characters, including an ambitious soldier, a wistful vicar, a flirtatious abolitionist, and an ordinary curate. The fates of these characters intertwine as each struggles to find the conviction to live out his or her own calling while confronting issues of loyalty, courage, faith, and love. CONVICTION is not a novel merely for fans of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, but for all who take part in the ordinary struggles of humanity.
