In this novel, the famous author takes center stage and finds herself embroiled in nefarious doings--in this case, the murder of a theater manager. As in the series' other books, Jane herself tells the story through a series of journal entries, and it is in her heroine's voice that Barron's genius comes to light: the same sharp eye for detail and ironic understanding of human character that informed Miss Austen's novels are hard at work in this fictional account of her sideline occupation as a sleuth. Though the mystery at the heart of <I>Jane and the Wandering Eye</I> is hardly a nail-biter, the wonderful mix of fictional and historical characters--all rendered up with Austenian wit--that inhabit this murderous comedy of manners are what will keep readers going to the very last page--<I>and</I> coming back for more. 2504887 3 11 1998 Jane and the Wandering Eye: Being the Third Jane Austen Mystery total:348|5:62|4:148|3:116|2:19|1:3| 348 1291 478 23 4 1 false false Thu Mar 27 18:27:41 -0700 2008 Thu Mar 27 18:31:33 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Thu Mar 12 04:53:27 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 12 04:54:11 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 1 false false Fri Jun 27 15:24:39 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 23 04:59:20 -0700 2008 more...]]> 1 0 false false Mon Aug 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 09:09:26 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 09:14:07 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Fri Mar 13 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 13 20:25:59 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 13 20:31:21 -0700 2009
