In the dark days following the Blitz, young Pearl Jenkins finds happiness as she celebrates her marriage to Jim Nesbitt. But what should be a joyful occasion is marred when a fight breaks out between Jim and Ricky Winters, an unwelcome visitor from Pearl's past and now the beau of her younger sister. Jim enlists, leaving Pearl at home - alone, pregnant, and at Ricky's mercy. Together, Pearl and Ruby bring up baby Cynthia while dodging the doodlebugs. Then tragedy strikes, and Pearl is forced to fight like never before to keep her family safe.
