1947. Boatloads of Displaced Persons arrive in Britain, stateless and penniless. The Ministry of Labour finds them somewhere to live, and a job...but takes away their freedom of choice. Will Natalya and Taras be able to stay together while trying to navigate the rules of this strange land? And, left behind the Iron Curtain, how will her two young sisters cope with the NKVD's bullying? Will they manage to avoid the deportations and summary executions? Unable to communicate with one another, the three sisters live in hope of one day being re-united, but will this ever be possible?
