Louise, who dreams only of playing Hamlet, is brutally brought to the realization that her parents have their own lives too, with secrets, passions and yearnings. Clary, who religiously documents all aspects of her life in diaries and letters, learns that her father, who was in the navy, is now missing somewhere on the shores of France. And sensitive, imaginative Polly feels stuck - stuck without a vocation, stuck without information about her mother's illness, without anything except for her nightmares about the war.
