A second son, Mr. Henry Bennet is an officer in His Majesty's army, knowing he must fight to earn his bread. But a letter from his father changes everything, as he is summoned home due to a family crisis. His brother, Philip Bennet, has been a gamester for years and has finally done the unthinkable-he has mortgaged Longbourn's future for his own selfish pleasures. The sinister figure of Baron Godwin, the immoral man to whom Philip has become indebted, casts a long shadow over Longbourn, as he demands to be paid what he is owed. As Henry and his father struggle to cope with the disaster which has fallen upon them, they make desperate plans to save what they can of their family and their very way of life. But in the process, Henry finds he has made an implacable enemy, a man who will stop at nothing to see him and all he cares for destroyed. The Heir's Disgrace is the first book of the Courage Always Rises: The Bennet Saga Trilogy. The second book will feature the ongoing struggles of Mr. Henry Bennet, as he attempts to protect his family from an implacable foe, and feature a young Elizabeth Bennet embroiled in a mystery. The third book will tell the story of Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam Darcy's courtship and detail the final confrontation between the Bennet family and their implacable enemy.
Autorenporträt
Jann Rowland is a Canadian, born and bred. Other than a two-year span in which he lived in Japan, he has been a resident of the Great White North his entire life, though he professes to still hate the winters. Though Jann did not start writing until his mid-twenties, writing has grown from a hobby to an all-consuming passion. His interests as a child were almost exclusively centered on the exotic fantasy worlds of Tolkien and Eddings, among a host of others. As an adult, his interests have grown to include historical fiction and romance, with a particular focus on the works of Jane Austen. When Jann is not writing, he enjoys rooting for his favorite sports teams. He is also a master musician (in his own mind) who enjoys playing piano and singing as well as moonlighting as the choir director in his church's congregation. Jann lives in Alberta with his wife of more than twenty years, two grown sons, and one young daughter. He is convinced that whatever hair he has left will be entirely gone by the time his little girl hits her teenage years. Sadly, though he has told his daughter repeatedly that she is not allowed to grow up, she continues to ignore him.
