September 1939  troubled young Imogen Lockhart travels to Cornwall by train to deliver two
small boys to their prep school  which has been evacuated to Penmartin House for the duration
of the war. When she's asked to stay on at the school as temporary cover for the usual matron
she readily agrees. After all  it enables her to put off more serious decisions of what to do
with her life. But her time at the school turns out to be more complicated than she'd imagined.
In 1966  sensitive and musical Belle Patterson is restless. She's finishing her first year at a
Midlands university but not enjoying it and is troubled by secrets in her family life. When 
after a chance meeting  she falls in love with talented and attractive folk musician Gray
Tucker  he easily persuades her to abandon her studies and accompany him to Cornwall  a place
that piques her interest because of a particular photograph she's recently found of herself as
a baby. On a small commune at Penmartin House near the beautiful Helford estuary she finds life
off-grid idyllic at first  the other people creative and interesting  but underlying tensions
soon reveal themselves. When the conflicts in the commune come to a head  Belle is forced to
face some difficult truths. She also comes to see how Imogen's story entwines with her own and
unravels the mysteries of her own family.
