Through a fireplace, Tom travels back in time to World War II. He ends up on a farm where he becomes part of the family and developes a warm friendship with the girl, May.

After returning to the present, Tom discovers that the family he visited all died under a bombing attack shortly after he left them in the past. And to warn the family, he fights to get back in time again. His journeys back and forth are not without consequences, though. His somewhat difficult present family life is influenced dramatically from his time travelling.
