He takes them in but at what cost to Nellie's unborn child? She longs for Teddy's return but he is killed in battle. Bitterly angry and grief stricken, the church is the last place Nellie would turn to, but her brother turns to her for help in tending an unconscious man, who apparently has sought the sanctuary of St Joseph's, she complies with his request. When the man disappears as mysteriously as he came, Nellie thinks little more of and instead she seeks solace for her grief in working with children in a newly opened day nursery. But the end of the war sees the reappearance of the mysterious stranger, and a new challenge for Nellie.
