Torn by war, torn by love... From war-darkened London to the lush countryside of southern France during World War II, a pilot is caught in a conflict of passion versus duty. Neir Richardson, an R.A.F. flight lieutenant, fought side-by-side with the French pilot Maurice Dupont, a young flyer attached to his squadron as a liaison officer. Maurice talked of nothing but his fiance - a girl as warm and beautiful as his homeland, the romantic Provence. He wanted so badly for his friend to meet her. And when the Englishman was wounded, his comrade-in-arms insisted he go to recuperate at his native village in Provence. There Neil discovered Maurice's adorable fiance, the French Julie - and an atracction such as he had never known. The Englishman fell in love with Julie and she with him. Now, out of loyalty to Maurice, they must strive to extinguish their passionate love. To hurt Maurice would be unthinkable, but love in war is a once-in-a-lifetime affair. Meanwhile the merciless German war machine sweeps across France, shattering the hopes of nations and individuals alike...
