It's 1940. German planes are pounding London, and Josie Banks watches helplessly as her life crumbles: her husband Stan has gone to the front, their home is reduced to rubble after the bombing, and the owner of the tea shop where Josie worked perished in the rubble. The young woman miraculously survived, but was left penniless and homeless.

Like thousands of other evacuated Londoners, Josie heads to the countryside and ends up in the mansion of the aristocrat Miss Harcourt, who is not at all happy about being "compacted." Miss Harcourt, however, allows Josie to open a tea shop in her home, where she meets Mike Johnson, a Canadian pilot from a nearby military airfield. A quick connection develops between the two, but Josie still finds it impossible to leave Stan, whom she doesn't love.

Even far from the bombings, in a sleepy village it is impossible to escape the dangers of war, and the girl must overcome a series of difficult trials.
