In the ultimate weeks of 1945, win ceases to be always a distant dream as well as for Rhoda Harding and many others, a sense of expectation is in the air. Rhoda is hoping for a change. Wedded to Alec for more than twenty-five years, she now discovers herself reluctant to stay into premature middle-age. Both her daughters lead busy, rewarding lives, whilst Rhoda seems her days are filled up with dull regimen. Alec is a happy man, content with his family life and successful business. As far as he is worried, his wife's place is in the house. Rhoda is at least able to find some solace in her new and improbable a friendly relationship with young Jenny Matherson. Jenny has few friends, but when tragedy hits the Mathersons, Rhoda discovers she is not Jenny's only ally. Charming newcomer, the enigmatic Silas, is also readily available to provide support to both women. Urged by Silas, Rhoda jumps at the chance to take occupation in the nearby town of Oakleigh. Alec is stunned and furious that his better half would like to work, but Rhoda is more than motivated. After all, the prospect of work is not the thing that keeps pulling her to Oakleigh every day. Silas is frequently there too.
