'Smallie': a Caribbean adjective for 'Small Islander'. In 1961, 19-year-old Lucinda Brown travels to England in search of her son's father, Clarence Braithwaite, who left Barbados to join the British army. But aboard the ship to Southampton she meets a man named Raldo who offers her a glimpse of a new life, a freer life. Bound by the memory of her son waiting at home, she chooses Clarence - realising too late that war has made a stranger out of him. Nearly 50 years later, Lucinda receives a letter from the Home Office that threatens to tear her world apart. Her children rally together to prove her legal arrival, and to do so they must track down an elusive man from her past, a man she wanted to love but instead lost, a man who now holds the key to her family's future. Raldo.
