Publisher's Synopsis
Ella has lived in the East End of London all her life and when her husband is determined to move to Epsom to be near the racecourse he frequents and loves, Ella's refusal to join him breaks up their marriage. It's been a tempestuous relationship - sometimes they had money, often not and when he was doing well, he liked the ladies... Ella soon loses the will to keep smart, trim and fit - until her mother steps in to pick up the pieces. It works - Ella gets a job as barmaid in the British Legion club and she begins to take pride in her appearance again. When Dennis turns up for a drink one night, he is taken by surprise - and remembers what attracted him to her in the first place. Can Dennis change his wheeler-dealer ways and win back his wife?
