Sanditon on Reflection

Jane Austen began writing her last novel, Sanditon, in 1817, wrote 12 Chapters then put it aside and with her death the same year, never finished it. Sanditon on Reflection tells the rest of the story as seen through the eyes of Jane Austen's heroine, a young woman by the name of Charlotte Heywood. My telling of Charlotte's story begins before Jane Austen's does in 1812 on a farm in a small English village named Willingden located between Hailsham and Eastbourne near the south coast of England. She lives there, with very limited access to the rest of the world, except through her books and dreams. She is the eldest daughter of a very large family headed by a country gentleman and his wife. One day in 1818, a happenstance on a ''very rough Lane gains her a sojourn away from her village to Sanditon, a fishing village with aspirations of becoming a fashionable Sea Bathing Spa Town in Regency Era England. Thus begins Charlotte's journey to uncover the mystery of a secret kept. Will that secret harm or save her as she strives to find love and a life in a world new to her that is filled with intrigue, avarice and obsession?
