The first euphoria of the war has worn off, but the nation is more determined than ever to win. Jessie, already involved in various charity works, feels the need to do more and heads to London to be a nurse. But life on the wards is harder than she expects. And for Violet in London, a chance meeting with talented young artist threatens to destroy her calm and ordered life. With both Ned and Bertie away at war, the rest of the family pray for their safe return but when a letter arrives for Jessie, all their fears are realised.
