In the aftermath of World War II, a British colonel and his wife are assigned to live in Hamburg during the post-war reconstruction. Rachael Morgan arrives in the ruins of Hamburg in the bitter winter, to be reunited with her husband Lewis, a British colonel charged with rebuilding the shattered city.
