It is 1948, and post-war Britain is on her knees. The call has gone out to the British Empire for volunteers to help rebuild the Mother Country, and young men and women from across the Caribbean have been quick to respond, paying the considerable sum of £28.10s to board HMT EMPIRE WINDRUSH.
Trinidadian nurse Mavis wants to see the world. Chef, the best cook on Jamaica, is desperate to see his son, wounded in the Second World War and now convalescing in an English hospital. Pele is evading retribution after robbing drug dealers in Mexico. And Precious has been sent away from Bermuda by her father so she might escape the scandal of the family business being investigated for corruption.
As these five hundred disparate passengers begin the two-week voyage, it becomes clear that their lives will never be the same again . . .
