Sixty-one-year-old Otto Schneider sits his study on the night of his birthday, reminiscing about the War. He does not know what drew him to do this, but he steels himself to remember a combination of heartwarming and horrid stories. Although this story is fiction, the experiences of Otto are experiences shared by an incomprehensible number of faceless soldiers who marched into conflict fueled by society's expectations, only to be mowed down by people who were just the same as they were.

When an injured German soldier washes up on a beach near Freya's home in England, she decides to help him, despite the consequences of helping the enemy.

With WWII forcing people and families apart, the two find that their friendship will be put to the test, and that Freya is determined to keep her promise to help him get back home.
