Laura Franklin, an overlooked second child, is resigned to a life in the shadow of her adored brother Charles. After he contracts polio and dies, Laura bitterly resents the subsequent arrival of her younger sister Shirley, an enchanting baby loved by all the family. But one night of tragedy turns everything upside down, and Laura's rancour dissolves as she vows to protect her sister with all her strength. As the girls grow up, Shirley begins to chafe under the burden of Laura's love, longing for freedom and romance. And Laura must learn that loving can never be a one-sided affair...
