In Britain during World War Two, eight-year-old Willie Beech is evacuated from London to the countryside for safety. He arrives at the home of Tom Oakley, a gruff but kind man who has lived alone for many years. Willie is shy and has experienced severe hardship in his young life. As Tom takes him in, they form a strong bond that helps both of them heal from their pasts. The story explores themes of friendship, resilience, and the impact of war on children.
