World War II doesn’t just arrive with bombs and blackouts, it wedges itself into living rooms, shatters routines, and redraws every line between neighbor, lover, and enemy.
On Manor Park Avenue, South London, war isn’t history, it’s home. Jim Carver survived the trenches once, but the Luftwaffe makes no exceptions for past trauma. His son Archie, now a respected businessman, risks scandal with an affair that could destroy everything he’s built.
Across the street, Esther Frith lives among ghosts. And Harold Godbeer? He’s losing faith in the England he once loved.
As firestorms fall from the sky and families fray at the seams, the Avenue must learn what it truly means to endure. Because survival isn’t just about who comes home, it’s about what still holds when the dust settles.
