Eve and Eddie Dobson have been running the George pub in Liverpool for over twenty years. It's not been a bad life, with three nearly grown daughters fed and clothed out of the takings. Now, though, the Depression is taking hold and money is in short supply It's galling for Eve that the barmaid they can barely afford spends the day making eyes at Eddie rather than pulling her weight behind the bar.

At least her girls have never been a worry to Eve. Lily's dreams of going on the stage haven't led her into trouble, so far. Sarah seems content to slog away as a waitress, while Maggie's gently directing her devoted boyfriend to the altar. Surely they'll survive thedifficult times?

Then Eddie's flirtation with the hired help takes an unexpected turn. Suddenly all the decisions are Eve's to make. And there are other surprises in store, which will leave none of Eve's family untouched...and call on all the strength of a mother's love.
