January 1941. Britain stands alone, and Rose must answer two proposals that would carry her towards very different futures. Richard returns from Dunkirk and months spent evading capture with the dream that sustained him badly damaged. Felix survives the destruction of his Spitfire but faces prolonged surgery, while Merry can do little except remain beside the man whose love has become central to his life.
Recovery does not remove the demands of service. The four friends are drawn into new wartime roles that separate them again and expose the limits of courage, loyalty and romantic certainty. Green balances the danger faced by soldiers and airmen with the quieter strain placed on performers, partners and families, showing that those who wait, nurse and entertain are also serving a country that offers them little control over the cost.
