Against the backdrop of the First World War, a young soldier tries to forget his past and survive each day.
Back in England, a young woman who has made a terrible mistake tries to forget that he ever existed.
Memories of happy summers long past mock the brutality of the world they now live in and each day; both on the front line and at home is a struggle to survive.
But somehow, in the flare of bombs and the ashes of the battlefield... A youthful love simply refuses to die.
And the repercussions of a buried, forbidden passion haunts them both.
