    As snow begins to fall, and word reaches their town that the Red Army are approaching, German-born mother-of-two Emma knows she has no choice: She must pack their meagre belongings and leave their home, in search of safety.

Desperate for him to get well enough to continue their journey, she takes him to a hospital, where she hands him to a kind nurse. Then a terrible attack separates mother and son, and their lives change forever.

    1914. The clouds of war are gathering across Europe, but life in the Durham village of Ashbrook Stills carries on as it has for generations, the miners and farmers unmindful of the catastrophe that is about to engulf their world and put them all in danger. The Garforth family lies at the epicenter of the upcoming change, as the young men of the village eagerly heed the call to arms and rush to enlist. Soon, young Edgar Garforth finds himself fighting for his life on the beaches of Gallipoli, as his brothers also enlist in Kitchener’s Army, ready to do their duty for King and Country.
