Young, ambitious and in love, Albert Cowgill's life is finally beginning in earnest. At just twenty-three, he has already been made partner at Haigh, Ackroyd & Cowgill - the best wool business in the city. He's also just laid eyes on the prettiest girl he ever saw, Hannah Ackroyd. Romance soon blossoms for Albert and Hannah, they marry and set up home in Scarborough. But before long, clouds gather over Number 1, Byland Crescent. Within a year, Albert's family begins to disintegrate. His youngest daughter contracts consumption. His eldest son runs off with the housemaid. As Europe teeters on the brink of war, Albert's hopes for his youngest son and his business are dashed.
