Volg drie nauw met elkaar verbonden verhalen van Jamaicanen en Londenaren die betrokken waren bij de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Hortense verlangt naar een nieuw leven weg van het platteland van Jamaica, Gilbert droomt ervan advocaat te worden en Queenie verlangt ernaar te ontsnappen aan haar roots in Lincolnshire. Hoop en menselijkheid ontmoeten de hardnekkige realiteit terwijl we de verwarde geschiedenis van Jamaica en Groot-Brittannië volgen.
