Liverpool, 1945. Three women, the strongest of friends, return home,
trying to fit back into their old lives after they've been demobbed.
They've been thrown together by the war and shared all sorts of good and
bad times. Now their old lives seem dull in comparison. But not for
long....
Maggie and Nell are both 21 and full of hope and excitement. Iris, on
the other hand, is feeling apprehensive about returning to civilian
life. At the age of 30, her only wish is to have a baby, but sadly this
wish is yet to come true. When one of the women falls pregnant, there
begins a dramatic sequence of events so wide-reaching that the three
friends' lives will become more intricately woven than they could
imagine....
