For Alan Carter the greatest personal sacrifice of the Great War of 1914-18 is being called up after only one week of marriage.Leaving his new bride is even more painful than the wound that, months later,interrupts his war at sea and sends him to Cornwall to convalesce.For there he has time to think about Dora and about the career as a writer that he secretly nutures.A career that seems impossible when he finds himself accepted by the established colony of Newlyn artists. There is one artist in particular - Vicky Hazelton - who encourages Alan's leanings towards the arts.And she stirs other feelings: inappropiate and impossible ones. For Vicky and her set inhabit a different world from Alan's.He,as one of Vicky's friends makes clear,belongs to London's East End - and to Dora.Yet,unbeknown to Alan,Dora has decided on a different path altogether.Alone and free in London,she feels her marriage was a mistake.And then she makes a second mistake - she becomes pregnant by another man.Alan is led to believe that the baby is his.But when the child is born, it's obvious he cannot be the father - or,any longer,Dora's husband. With the war now over,Alan moves to Cornwall, and to Vicky.But the ghosts of the past are not so easily evaded.Dora is out to make trouble,and so are certain of Vicky's friends.Conflict,yet again,looks set to intrude on Alan's life. . . . . .
