When Tommy Blue is released from prison after spending 15 years inside, he strives hard to make a new life for himself. Now, after years of hard work, he is an established businessman, who falls for Amber, a young mother in the neighbourhood, and becomes a father to her 5-year-old twin sons. Getting to know her better, he begins to have doubts about their relationship, but when she becomes pregnant he stands by her, revelling in the fatherhood of his new daughter Lilac Rose. Soon things begin to go wrong, and Amber moves all her children away from Tommy, and with the connivance of friends, embarks on an attempt to cut him out of their lives. Wilfie Cummings is a crusading voice for all those fathers who have lost their children in the British courts. He writes with passion and strong language, from personal experience, in criticism of the Family Courts and what he sees as a biased welfare system which would deny fathers and children the love that is their right.
