A brief tale about an impossibly difficult two-century relationship that may decide whether war or peace breaks out.
1943 in Yorkshire. Bright young debutante Lily Baines, who feels like she's in a never-ending conflict, has given up her white gloves for a pair of headphones. Her responsibility is to intercept messages from hostile ships and forward them to Bletchley Park for decoding.
One evening, she hears a communication that is a call for assistance rather than code at all.
In the North Atlantic, an American ship is under heavy fire, but no one else has reported an assault, and the information that the young US officer Matt Jackson is relaying seems to be inaccurate. It's 2023, according to Lily's contact on the other end of the radio channel.
Lily and Matt have to figure out a way to support one another over the course of eight decades: Matt has to persuade Lily that the war she is waging can still be won, and Lily has to help him avert the impending conflict. They both realize that their mysterious link will eventually run out as their bond becomes stronger.
