Emily Walker was unsure about many things, but one thing she knew... she was old enough to make her own decisions... but making choices is never easy. Should she obey her old-fashioned father or should she give in to her instincts and follow her free-thinking suffragette aunt? Life had been much simpler when she had first moved into the house on Westbourne Avenue, but that was before everything changed... before August 1914. The First World War would bring love and loss into Emily's life, but it would bring opportunities too. Would she take them? Would she gain that sense of freedom that she so desperately wanted? Either way, one thing was certain, nothing would ever be the same again.
