Synopsis
October 1941. Marianne Fordham has a lot to cope with. As well as taking care of her young daughter Emily and working on dressmaking commissions, she is desperately worried about her pilot husband Alex, flying over enemy territory. And her baby is almost due . . . Thea welcomes her best friend, Violet Steele, to Rookery House. Violet has been in charge of an ambulance station in London's East End during the Blitz, and is in need of a holiday. Will a week in the countryside give her the rest she deserves? VAD nurse Evie Jones receives unwelcome news that stirs up her past and forces her to make an uncomfortable decision. Though she has a surprise when her friend Ned Blythe returns to start a new job in the hospital gardens. Can Evie let go of the past and give her future happiness a chance?
