WORLD WAR II IS OVER -- AND THE TROOPS ARE COMING HOME.
Bound together by their weekly knitting circle, Carrie, Velma, Gwen and Shirley supported one another through the bleak wartime years. Through good times and bad, they kept each other's spirits up, taking comfort in their unique bond of friendship, longing for the day their men would return.
Now at last their husbands have come home. But it's not easy adjusting to married life again -- and two of the women have painful secrets to hide. Shirley doesn't know if she can live with the guilt of her deceit. Gwen is terrified of being found out. Having tasted independence, Velma plans to ask for a divorce. And, married just two weeks before her husband joined up, Carrie must get to know her beloved Archie all over again.
In a gossiped-fuelled village like Penhallow accusations abound and rumours fly. Their marriages under increasing strain, the four women will need each other as never before.
