Summary At the end of the Second World War, many foreign aircraft landed in southern Sweden and several squadrons were tasked with piloting in often badly damaged bombers. Gösta Nilsson flies the new SAAB 18 aircraft. On the way home from a mission, his aircraft disappears and an extensive search is launched. Lilian, who is heavily pregnant, is informed of the accident and is taken care of by Anna Söderberg, Wing Commander Erik Söderberg's German wife. The two women have become good friends, perhaps united by Lilian's pregnancy. Lilian is shocked and confused, but she never breaks down. Two men are found: They are Rota, Gösta's good friend, who is badly injured, and Boström, who has broken his neck. Gösta has parachuted in and is eventually found completely unharmed. He and Lilian meet later that evening. They are both happy and heartbroken. A couple of packed suitcases reveal that she has planned to go away, but she has been hindered by everything that has happened during the day. Pressured by Gösta, she admits that she had planned to go and give birth to the child and then give it up for adoption immediately after birth. When Gösta is completely uncomprehending, it dawns on Lilian that he has never understood the worry and the reason for her fear. He has not understood that it is Orvar, his own brother, who is the father of the expected child. After the unexpected blow, Gösta can't and won't stop her from staying, but suddenly Lilian decides to stay with him.
