When Dottie s husband Reg receives a mysterious letter through
the post, Dottie has no idea that this letter will change her life
forever.
Traumatised by his experiences fighting in World War II, Reg isn
t the same man that Dottie remembers when he is demobbed and
returns home to their cottage in Worthing. Once caring and
considerate, Reg has become violent and cruel. Dottie just wants
her marriage to work but nothing she does seems to work.
The letter informs Reg that he is the father of a child born out
of a dalliance during the war. The child has been orphaned and sole
care of the young girl has now fallen to him. He seems delighted
but Dottie struggles with the idea of bringing up another woman s
child, especially as she and Reg are further away than ever from
having one of their own.
However, when eight-year-old Patsy arrives a whole can of worms
is opened and it becomes clear that Reg has been very economical
with the truth. But can Dottie get to the bottom of the things
before Reg goes too far?
A compelling family drama that will appeal to fans of Maureen
Lee, Lyn Andrews, Josephine Cox and Annie Groves."
