Unmarriageable

Retelling of Pride and Prejudice set in modern-day Pakistan. A scandal concerning the Binat family has destroyed their fortune and prospects for desirable marriages for their five daughters. Alys Binat has found happiness teaching English literature but when the family is invited to the biggest wedding in their town in years Mrs. Binat prepares her daughters to seek out rich eligible bachelors. Alys's lovely older sister catches the eye of an entrepreneur but his friend the brusque Valentine Darsee is clearly unimpressed by the Binat family. Alys has sworn never to marry--until an encounter with one Mr. Darsee at the wedding makes her reconsider.
