Happy 13th Book Birthday to “The Phantom of Pemberley: A Pride and Prejudice Mystery”

Posted on July 3, 2023 by Regina Jeffers

On July 1, 2010, Ulysses Press released The Phantom of Pemberley: A Pride and Prejudice Mystery. It was the first of my cozy mysteries, and it remains a favorite. In 2019, I received the rights to all my Ulysses Press titles back from the company. I have periodically been rereleasing them with new covers and to new readers.
