September, 1992: for over 40 years, Rose Pepper has kept her own counsel about the story of her past, wanting the truth to stay hidden from her two daughters. But the discovery of some unopened letters threatens to betray all her secrets. January, 1943: evacuted to work as a land-girl in Cornwall during the Second World War, Rose falls in love with a young Czech soldier, stationed at the local US army base. Both of them try to forget that Rose is already engaged to a cold and controlling friend of her family, who will not let her go. In the chaotic aftermath of the war, Rose and her lover flee to Prague, only to face a greater danger. The Communists are taking over and it is every man and woman for themselves in a city riddled with informers.
