Luckily there's work to be found over the water in 1920s Liverpool and soon Kitty has a job in a grocer's, where she also catches the eye of the owner. With Kitty's input the business is soon thriving — but tragedy lies ahead, and she must endure many trials and tribulations before she can find true happiness!
