In this moving World War II saga, a Cornish woman welcomes four children evacuated from London and ponders her family’s future.
In 1940, the comparative calm is disrupted by the arrival of four evacuees from London. While Skye welcomes the new additions with open arms, the other family members have mixed reactions. As, one by one, friends and family are reported missing or killed, Skye is forced to accept that their Cornish luck may be slipping.
But Skye has always shared her grandmother’s passion of keeping the old family business alive, but as the war drags on, she must decide whether the struggles of her family is worth it for an old woman’s dream.
