Cathy was a happy, blushing bride when Britain went to war with Germany three years ago. But her dreams were crushed by her violent husband Stanley's involvement with the fascist black-shirts, and even when he's conscripted she knows it's only a brief respite - divorce is not an option. Cathy stays strong for her beloved little son Peter. When a telegram arrives declaring that her husband is missing in action, Cathy can finally allow herself to hope - she only has to wait six months before she is legally a widow and can move on with her life. In the meantime, she has to keep Peter safe and fed. So she advertises for a lodger, and Sergeant Archie McIntosh of the Royal Engineers' Bomb Disposal Squad turns up. He is kind, clever and thoughtful; their mutual attraction is instant. But with Stanley's fate still unclear, and the Blitz raging on over London's East End, will Cathy ever have the love she deserves?
