Description: It is 1914 and Christabel Blakemore is happily preparing for her wedding when she receives the shattering news that her fiance has been drowned at sea. Discovering she is pregnant, she decides to leave home and help the war effort by becoming a nurse. She becomes close to one of the doctors, but he is married and breaks off the connection. Increasingly desperate, she seeks assistance from her brother Lewis, who helps to get the baby adopted. She had no alternative, for her sake and the baby's, but she wonders if she'll ever be free from the fateful decision she made.
