Summary
Elizabeth Bennet was not the first obstinate, headstrong girl to roam the corridors of Pemberley, and she wouldn't be the last.
Firstly, there's Sophia, the stubborn Jacobean Lady, married off to a dullard from Dulwich, and then mistress to King James II; Mabel, the only daughter of Darcy and Elizabeth, who grows up in the shadow of her parents very famous romance; Millicent, the former suffragette, navigating her path between two World Wars; and a tiny offshoot on the branch of the Darcy family tree... Lizzy, who lives in the servants wing with her daughter, Harriet.
All is well until a production crew arrive on site to film Pride and Prejudice, and she finds herself living in close proximity to her first love, and fascinated by the handsome actor playing Mr Darcy, her six-times great grandad.This story twists and turns throughout time and history, as familiar characters and new ones tell a new tale.
***NOTE: first version of this story already published on here piecemeal as I developed the separate stories. Thank you to everyone who left a comment! THIS WILL BE THE COMPLETE AND FINAL VERSION***

She was always protrayed as simply a trophy wife of one of the most notorious New York-based gangsters. A frivalous arm candy, paraded around as proof of her husband's power. A naive woman, nothing too special, who woul never know how to play the "Game."
No one, in their right mind, would have expected her to become the Queen of the Winterfell Syndicate. No one except for three men.

Summary
"The murderer is with us-on the train now . . ."
Just after midnight and only halfway through the Scottish Highlands, the world-famous Hogwarts Express is stopped in its tracks by a snowdrift. By morning, the millionaire known as Tom Riddle lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. One of his fellow passengers must be the murderer.
Isolated by the storm outside, Private Detective Hercule Poirot must find the killer among a dozen of the dead man's enemies, before the murderer decides to strike again. Will it be the graceful governess- Hermione Granger? The aggressive ministry official- Ron Weasley? Or one of the many other characters joined together by a simple holiday? In a world of magic and murder mystery, there will be lots of surprises to be found.
A re-write of one of my favourite novels, Murder On The Orient Express by Agatha Christie, I hope you enjoy this just as much as I am enjoying writing it.
See the end-notes of each chapter for the full list / reminder of what characters from Harry Potter are filling which roles from the novel.
