When a naive encounter at a Coronation party leaves sixteen-year-old Janet Slater pregnant there's no question in her scandalised parents' minds of her keeping the child. Bundled off to an unmarried mothers' hospital, Janet faces the hardest moments of her sheltered life alone. Forced to give her tiny daughter up for adoption, Janet promises Paula that one day she'll find her. In the years that follow, Janet has to rebuild her life around her secret, but little Paula is never far from her thoughts. And Janet keeps her promise to seek out her lost child, but no sooner have they been reunited than a new shadow falls across the fragile happiness of their lives...
