Wealthy farmer Luke Hudson gets more than he bargained for when he plucks a destitute young woman from the workhouse. He may have rescued Connie Summers from a life of penury, but her spirit and warmth give him a new outlook and a second chance at love.Isle of Dogs, East End of London, Christmas 1928. Modern-thinking doctor Harry Fleet and compassionate nurse Tilly Dainty clash at the Tap House Surgery in 1920s East London. But working together to help the sick turns out to be the healing balm both their hearts needed.
