It's like a sudden curse has come down on us all. It makes me wonder if we'll ever see the sun again." It's 1943 and Lily Tregenze lives on a farm in the idyllic seaside village of Slapton. Apart from her father being away and the 'townie' evacuees at school her life is scarcely touched by the war. Until one day Lily and her family along with 3000 other villagers are told to move out of their homes -- lock stock and barrel. Soon the whole area is out of bounds as the Allied forces practise their landings for D-day preparing to invade France. But Tips Lily's adored cat has other ideas -- barbed wire and keep-out signs mean nothing to her nor does the danger of guns and bombs. Frantic to find her Lily makes friends with two young American soldiers who promise to help her. But will she ever see her cat again?
