Publisher's Note
As Christmas of 1804 approaches, Jane Austen finds herself "insupportably bored with Bath, and the littleness of a town." It is with relief that she accepts a peculiar commission from her Gentleman Rogue, Lord Harold Trowbridge--to shadow his niece, Lady Desdemona, who has fled to Bath to avoid the attentions of the unsavoury Earl of Swithin.But Janes idle diversion turns deadly when a man is discovered stabbed to death in the Theatre Royal. Adding to the mystery is an unusual object found on the victims body--a pendant that contains a portrait of an eye! As Jane's fascination with scandal leads her deeper into the investigation, it becomes clear that she will not uncover the truth without some dangerous playacting of her own....
Jane Austen continues to enthrall movie lovers, television viewers, and readers of this series. Now, in Jane's most festive and fearsome outing yet, she attends a masquerade ball that could lead to the ruin of her reputation--or the loss of her life.

Industry reviews
"As the editorial footnotes to this journal narrative point out, figures from the Austen novels also make their presence felt in the story, at times crossing paths with characters from the fictional Jane's previous detective adventures. That Barron can take these disorienting writing tricks to such a high level of invention testifies to an easy acquaintance with upper-class life and culture in regency England and a fine grasp of Jane Austen's own literary style--not to mention a mischievous sense of fun."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (01/11/1998)

"Barron's re-creation of the speech, manner, and innermost feelings of her heroine is uncannily on target, but the byzantine plotting and huge canvas of characters--some pedestrian, some intriguing--will be best appreciated by patient Austen aficionados."
