Five sisters. One house. Everything it witnessed.

Longbourn has always known more than it lets on.

What the House Knew tells the story of eight months at Longbourn from five different angles. Each sister gets her own chapters. Each has her own arc. And the slow burn at the centre of it all is witnessed, debated, misread, and finally understood, by everyone except, for a considerable time, the two people it concerns.

For readers who have always wanted to know what Jane was thinking.
