Description: Bridgette has been hurt many times in her young life. Her early years were blighted by her spoilt brother; her marriage ruined by World War Two. Now her mother is dying - and then comes a deathbed revelation; somewhere Bridgette has a father and another family. Bridgette joins the war effort and shows her courage by aiding a British agent whose life is in danger, but as the war draws to a close, she is still full of questions about her past. So she sets off for Birmingham, desperately hoping to find a place where she can finally belong.
