This is the story of Muriel Hammond, at twenty living within the
suffocating confines of Edwardian middle-class society in
Marshington, a Yorkshire village. A career is forbidden to her.
Pretty, but not pretty enough, she fails to achieve the one thing
required of her - to find a suitable husband. Then comes the First
World War, a watershed which tragically revolutionises the lives of
her generation. But for Muriel it offers work, friendship, freedom,
and one last chance to find a special kind of happiness...
