1935. When Charles Woodfall's debut play becomes a hit, it sets him on a path to adventure and romance. But as the storm clouds gather over Europe, he finds himself in a country on the brink of invasion.
In America, Charles falls for the beautiful Hollywood actress, Laura Lanier. Too late, he discovers that she is already committed to another. The harsh consequences of Charles's devotion are felt throughout the years. By the onset of the second world war, he is in Poland, torn between love and honour, as the Nazi occupation threatens Laura and all she holds dear.
