Synopsis:
Josephine Norris (Olivia de Havilland) volunteers for a fire watch with Lord Desham (Ronald Culver) on the rooftops of London during the Blitz. When Lord Desham is nearly killed during the air raid, the ageing pair reminisce over the lost loves of their youth. Josephine recalls her first and only love affair with World War I fighter pilot Captain Bart Cosgrove (John Lund). Their whirlwind romance during a fundraising tour for the American war effort lasts only a few days, but when Captain Cosgrove returns to the front, Josephine finds herself pregnant with an illegitimate child in an American backwater town.
When she learns of Captain Cosgrove's death in action Josephine realises that she can never marry the father of her child, so she decides to contrive an adoption of the child to herself. But fate plays its own hand...
