È appena tornata la quiete nell’amata Pemberley, dove i coniugi Darcy, reduci dall’ultima recente avventura, non vedono l’ora di ritirarsi e godere finalmente della bambina appena nata. Ma, ancora una volta, è un desiderio destinato a restare insoddisfatto. Per salvare la reputazione della famiglia, infatti, Darcy ed Elizabeth dovranno precipitarsi a Mansfield Park, dove la loro presenza è richiesta, o meglio pretesa, dalla zia di Darcy, Lady Catherine de Bourgh. Sua figlia Anne, infatti, è sparita per fuggire alle trame della madre, che la voleva sposata a un uomo ricco e di nobili natali, di cui la giovane non era innamorata.

Ma non appena incominciano a indagare per ritrovare Anne e riportarla a casa, emergono segreti e inganni, che renderanno la situazione sempre più complicata, fino a farla precipitare, rischiando di trascinare nel fango dell’infamia e della menzogna l’intera famiglia Darcy...
