First Impressions: A Novel of Old Books, Unexpected Love, and Jane Austen

A thrilling literary mystery costarring Jane Austen from theÂ New York Timesâ€“bestselling author ofÂ The Bookmanâ€™s Tale

Charlie Lovett's newest bookÂ The Further Adventures of Ebenezer ScroogeÂ is now available from Viking

Book lover and Austen enthusiast Sophie Collingwood has recently taken a job at an antiquarian bookshop in London when two different customersÂ request a copy of the same obscure book: the second edition ofÂ AÂ Little Book of AllegoriesÂ by Richard Mansfield. Their queries draw SophieÂ into a mystery that will cast doubt on the true authorship ofÂ Pride and Prejudiceâ€”andÂ ultimately threatenÂ Sophieâ€™s life.

In a dual narrative that alternates between Sophieâ€™s quest to uncover the truthâ€”while choosing between two suitorsâ€”and a young Jane Austenâ€™s touching friendship withÂ the aging cleric Richard Mansfield, Lovett weaves a romantic, suspenseful, and utterly compelling novel about love in all its forms and the joys of a life lived in books.
