to do anything other than look after their husbands and raise
children. Struggling to fit in at her new school and picked on by
the other girls, Janet befriends, Ruth, another lonely pupil whose
Jewish family have suffered many hardships. Janet and Ruth forge a
strong friendship through her school life and beyond. But will
their friendship survive when Janet falls for Ruth's brother, Ben
-marriage to a Catholic girl would go against everything his
community hold dear. When the whole world seems stacked against
her, can Janet hold onto her dreams?
