Pride, Prejudice, and Pitfalls by Johnnie Alexander

Pride, Prejudice, and Pitfalls is the seventeenth book in the Mysteries of Cobble Hill Farm fiction series.

Life has never been busier for Dr. Harriet Bailey-Knight. Her veterinary practice is thriving, and she is still adjusting to her new role as a pastor's wife--an endeavor made more challenging by some parishioners' unrealistic expectations. Plus, she and her husband, Will, have been cast in the starring roles for an upcoming production of Pride and Prejudice.

An old acquaintance of Will's has moved to White Church Bay to reopen the Beacon-on-the-Moor Playhouse, a theater that closed under mysterious circumstances in the late 1980s. The undertaking is threatened by a series of unexplained incidents and the mysterious apparition of a man wearing a tall hat. While investigating the strange events, Harriet discovers that Pride and Prejudice was the last play to be performed before the original theater closed--and the actress who played Lydia Bennet disappeared without a trace!

Can Harriet solve a cold case and expose the modern-day culprit pretending to haunt the theater? Or is this the playhouse's final curtain call?
