A Pride and Prejudice what if covering Fitzwilliam Darcy's story. Five young men descend upon Netherfield Park, not for sport or leisure, but to create a secret partnership for a global trading network. Darcy and Charles Bingley are joined by Lord Blake, Gerald Rawlings, and Stephen Kent. Business is intermingled with romance and the men become opponents in a high stakes competition for money and control while a unknown rival is watching and preparing the destruction of any alliance that emerges. Rivalry extends beyond business and onto a particular lady with fine eyes. Twists and turns continue in Book II.
