Description: Marianne is married to a naval officer, Neil Sheridan. They have a daughter, Libby, and a home in Liverpool. When war comes, Marianne takes war work and moves into Crocus Street with her mother, Mrs Wainwright, and sister. Neil disapproves because the Wainwrights live so near the docks, which are bound to be a bombing target, but Marianne is firm.
