Blackpool 1940. Although the War means uncertainty and anxiety for some, Eunice Morton is grateful for the opportunities it gives her to escape her overbearing mother and the family's Blackpool boarding house. She volunteers for the Women's Land Army and is sent to help on a farm in Gloucestershire. Milking the cows and working in the fields are a far cry from the domestic routines of the boarding house, but Eunice soon settles into life on the farm and finds that she enjoys her work and her newfound independence. Back home, her relationship with her devoted childhood friend Ronnie looks set to turn into something more romantic but, despite Ronnie's declarations of love, Eunice still isn't sure that he is the one for her. Then she befriends Heinrich Muller, a German POW sent to work on the farm, and as Eunice's feelings for Heinrich grow deeper, an elicit moment of passion changes her life forever.
