Our Tom is set during the First World War and is the story of Thomas Middleton, a lonely 36-year-old laborer from Derbyshire, though well-respected and a pillar of the community he is lonely and sees the outbreak of war a chance to escape his humdrum life. Upon hearing of the sinking of the Lusitania, decides to enlist not only to get away from his life but to protect his family and the country he loves. What he discovers on his journey is that the welcome world of men, and the strict regime of military life are not everything. Amid this turmoil, he meets a feisty young nurse, Ella, who helps him come to terms with the death of a friend and shows him what love is and what it means to be loved. As romance blossoms, Tomโ€™s life merges with the life of this young nurse. As the eve of the third battle for Gaza looms, Tom and Ella are torn apart by the rigid rules and a hidden secret.
