   Summary

   It's 1939, and the children of Downton are all grown up. Handsome young George Crawley-the image of his father Matthew-is poised to begin university when World War II breaks out. In an echo of the past, he enlists as an officer in His Majesty's army, while his fiery cousin Sybbie follows in her mother's footsteps and becomes a nurse. Meanwhile, a distant relative of Cora's from Connecticut-a Jewish girl named Miriam Levinson-is sent to Downton for her safety. George finds himself at risk of losing his heart irrevocably to the new stranger, while Sybbie seems poised on the brink of making an entirely unsuitable match...
