'Hey, baby, how about you and me get out of here?' the GI asked Rae. But even if he had been Clark Gable, she wouldn't have given him a second look. He was a Yank, and therefore not to be trusted.

After being bombed out of her home in North London, tomboy Rae joins the ATS and is sent to work welding tanks near Nottingham. Despite her dislike of 'Yanks', a GI called Raymond wears down her resistance and she agrees to marry him. After the war, she reluctantly follows him to rural Pennsylvania, where she soon discovers his dark secret.
