There are three intertwining love stories in "Searching for Pemberley", set against the backdrops of Regency England, World Wars I and II, and postwar England. Through letters, diary entries, and oral history, a couple in the nearby village share stories of the people they say inspired Jane Austen, and also tell their own love story, made difficult by their vastly different backgrounds - she was one of the social elite while he was the son of a servant. Then their son, Michael, visits his parents from his RAF station in Malta, and Maggie may just have found her very own Mr. Darcy.
