When Pee Wee Poston and his wife Beulah are offered the chance to swap New York for London, they jump at the chance as they can be close to their son Julius, a diplomat at the American embassy. As war looms, the warmth of their neighbours counters the anti-black feeling they discover elsewhere.
The twenty-third novel from Emma Blair is another romantic fiction in which she once again she writes about love overshadowing warThe delightful Postons move from New York to Islington in the 1930s. They face contempt from some of the locals as they are both American and black.

Their neighbours the Sykes are intrigued by the Postons' American ways, and the families become close. World War II breaks out, Pee Wee plays on and despite the difficult times ahead, romance soon blossoms between Julius and the Sykes' daughter Ellie.
