When Kitty is invited to stay with her friend Partita at Bauders Castle, her mother sees it as an opportunity for Kitty to escape from the dark presence of her notorious father. Partita's parents are enchanted by Kitty as she becomes part of their privileged lifestyle: a way of life that seems to be unassailable. But after one last idyllic seaside holiday, war is declared. Whilst the young men are impatient to volunteer, the girls go on nursing courses, and the castle becomes a convalescent home. They are sure that the war will be over within weeks, but once the wounded start arriving from the Front, the harsh reality of war becomes clear to them all, none more so than Kitty and Partita.
