As the Depression bites, a young woman dreams of 'Getting Away', but
will find drama and heartache on her own doorstep.
1935, Edinburgh. Beautiful Lindsay 'Lindy' Gillian is determined to
look on the bright side in spite of the Depression: she has a job
working for her stepmother at Murchie's Provisions, and her family
reside in one of the nicer flats in a nearby tenement block.
But when Roderick Connor strolls into the shop one day, Lindy has to
make a choice that will turn her world upside down, while a new arrival,
surprise opportunities and war clouds from Spain on the horizon all have
unexpected repercussions . . .
