About this title

Synopsis

It is 1926 and Caroline is starting to enjoy a varied and interesting social life. Her allowance is secure for now, but can she evade the advances of her suitors and maintain her independence?

After a life-changing event, Caroline and her father George move into a new apartment in Cheltenham and quickly meet the other residents. The General Strike forces Caroline to consider her situation in a different light, and to understand that actions have consequences. Her address is not the only change Caroline must come to terms with over the next few months as she watches her friends marry and begin to settle down. To clear her head, Caroline travels to an artists’ retreat in Cornwall. Yet this only adds to the confusion she feels about her own future.

With the anniversary of her brother’s death once again looming, a chance conversation may provide the solution to Caroline’s need to take the next step on her journey to independence.
