Title: The other side of happiness
Description: The 1960s - a decade of mini-skirts, pop music and endless possibilities - are full of promise for typist Sadie Bell. She lives with her parents and brothers in Hammersmith. When she meets Paul Winston at a Cliff Richard concert, they fall head over heels in love, and, impatient to be married, they move in to Paul's parents' home in Surrey, until they can afford their own place. Then, tragically, their joy short-lived, Sadie finds herself returning to London alone, pregnant and heartbroken. However, supported by her family and close friend, Brenda, she finds a new sense of purpose when Rosie is born. But life has more surprises in store for Sadie, and a terrible secret threatens to take everything away from her once more ...
