In Jane Austen's England wimmelt es nur so von den "Unaussprechlichen." Die Etikette und die höfliche Gesellschaft herrschen noch immer, aber sie werden großen Belastungen ausgesetzt, wenn zum Beispiel der Ball von Netherfield durch einen plötzlichen Angriff auf die Hausangestellten unterbrochen wird. Elizabeth Bennett ist immer noch für ihre Schönheit und Intelligenz bekannt. Jedoch auch für ihr Know-how in der "tödlichen Kunst", eine Fähigkeit, die ihre Chancen auf dem Heiratsmarkt erheblich verschlechtert.
Kurzbeschreibung:
As a mysterious plague falls upon the village of Meryton and zombies start rising from the dead, Elizabeth Bennett is determined to destroy the evil menace, but becomes distracted by the arrival of the dashing and arrogant Mr. Darcy.

It s the perfect read for literature lovers, zombie fans, and anyone who loves a reani mated Austen.
