A story of love, written in the spirit of Jane Austen, Adriana is the delightful tale of Adriana Bancroft, a single woman set adrift in Regency England. As she begins the search for her dear twin brother, lost in the Peninsular War, Adriana dons the disguise of a boy to avoid causing scandal. But she is plunged headlong into incredible difficulties as the glittering society of Regency London reveals it's seamier depths. And if she sheds her disguise, she will forfeit the high regard of the embittered gentleman she has come to love, Sir Nicholas Laidley.
