Abstract:
Tom Parker is obsessed with turning the sleepy seaside village of Sanditon into a fashionable health resort, enlisting the backing of local bigwig Lady Denham. Through a mishap, Tom makes the acquaintance of the Heywoods and invites their eldest daughter, Charlotte, for an extended stay at Sanditon. Meanwhile, Lady Denham, a widow, is playing matchmaker for her destitute nephew, Sir Edward, who is determined to seduce Lady Denham's ward, Clara.
"Sanditon's a place that's changing fast. Visionary entrepreneur Tom Parker ... is transforming the once-sleepy fishing village into a fashionable spa resort. Changing alongside it is the impulsive and unconventional Charlotte Heywood ... who swaps her quiet rural home for the intrigues and dalliances of a seaside town on the rise. But soon to be exposed are the hidden agendas of characters whose fortunes depend on Sanditon's commercial success, including the mixed-race heiress Miss Lambe ... and the charismatic but complicated Sidney Parker ..."-- Container
