Behind the glitter of fame and fortune is a past that threatens to expose Rayna's darkest secrets. In the 1950s, a young West Indian girl arrives in London, eager to start a new life and quickly finds herself entangled with two powerful men. It is when she reveals her talent as a singer that the balance of power shifts and her fresh start can begin. Her success grows but so does the weight of her past. Haunted by the promises she broke and the consequences of a day she will never forget, Rayna must make a difficult decision: continue hiding the truth or risk losing everything she has gained. Will her life as a young girl destroy the world of the woman she has become, or will those she loves find it in their hearts to forgive her?

An emotional story of love, music, and hidden truths in post-Windrush London.
