The year was 1939 and soldiers were about to go to war. Constance Cummings, a sixteen-year-old beautiful but naïve young girl, was taken in by a conniving and duplicitous junior army officer who was already married with a family using a false identity.With the false promise of later marriage and following a wager with his colleagues he lured the girl into a seedy room where he raped her.She found herself to be pregnant and in 1940 she had a baby with an unknown father. Even though she had been duped and raped this was considered to be a disgrace and the child, a boy, was taken from her without her even being aware of his sex.Meanwhile, some miles away the offenderâs real wife gave birth to a son.This is a story of their lives from that point on. Will Constance ever meet up with her son? Will the offenderâs real wife ever realise what a dreadful man she had married? Will the two half-brothers ever meet and become friends?
