But to Barron, Jane is not just a novelist -- in addition, her powers of observation and deduction and her understanding of human nature make her an ideal detective. And in <i>Jane and the Stillroom Maid</i>, the fifth of Barron's Austen mysteries, Jane is faced with the most complicated case she has seen to date.
