Summary
The mysterious Mister Darcy, a modern day Knight Templar, follows his beloved Lizzie down the wrong rabbit hole, only to discover one of history’s spookiest antiquities.

"Stop!" Darcy called dashing ahead of Lizzie to catch their toddlers, but it was too late. Before he could reach the boys, little Annie had followed them under the ground. Three children and one rather handsome husband all suddenly vanished. Lizzie did the only thing she could think of and threw herself into a full-body slide down the dark, mossy rabbit hole.
This is the ninth book in the popular Mister Darcy series of comedic mysteries. Don’t let the title tumble you down the wrong rabbit hole - this has nothing to do with Alice! Based on the enduring characters created by Jane Austen, this is a contemporary spin on a classic tale of love denied, love discovered, and love growing as time goes by. Can be enjoyed as a standalone, but it helps to follow the series from book one.
