"When middle class Cathy falls in love with working class Joseph, a soldier, she dare not tell her family, who want her to marry into the wealthy Callingham family. Class and the war loom between them and happiness. When Joseph is killed in France and Cathy discovers she is pregnant, she has little option but to accept young Henry Callingham's proposal made as he goes off to war, despite the fact that she doesn’t love him.A gripping wartime story revealing the lives and loves of Cathy, the Callingham family and those around them - through the Blitz and the Battle of Britain to an Air Force hospital where a brilliant plastic surgeon works on rebuilding the faces of young pilots disfigured by war, ending in 1945 when Europe is on the brink of peace and a brave new world."
