A seashell and a sealed letter form a tenuous connection to a forbidden wartime romance...
Simon's Town is a vibrant seafaring community in a picturesque part of the Union of South Africa. Louise Ahrendts, daughter of a local shipbuilder, nurtures the dream of becoming a nurse amid the unwritten, unspoken rules about colour that might hold her back.
As the port becomes a hub of activity following the outbreak of the Second World War, Louise crosses paths with man she is determined to be with - despite all the obstacles that life and war can throw in their way.
But when a new troubled moment of history dawns, can they find their way back to each other?
